In-form Ghanaian play-maker in the Lebanese top-flight division, Michael Helegbe has stated that his target is to win the Lebanese premier league with his club AS Tripoli.

The ex- Black Meteors skipper has been in superb goal scoring form after his season loan from Ghanaian side Medeama SC to the Tripoli based club.

However, the Ghanaian hit-man is the most talked about player in the Lebanese media as his scintillating performance in the league outwit his competitors(players) in other clubs.

Michael Helegbe in an interview with a Television station called the New TV based in Beiruit, Lebanon, said his season aim with AS Tripoli is to win the Lebanese premier league.

''Currently I'm with AS Tripoli and I'm here to help them win the league and that has been my season target and after that I will see the way forward.''

Helegbe opined that, since he arrived at the club(AS Tripoli) he has been treated very well and he must deliver in returns to the fans.

''I arrived in Tripoli to play football but the kind of wonderful treatment i have been receiving is overwhelming and the only return is to deliver for the fans,'' he noted.

He added - ''Irrespective of my good form in the league there are certain players that play for clubs like Al Ahed FC and Nejmeh FC who are very good and I see them as my competitors.''

The first round of matches in the Lebanese top-flight ended last weekend but the Ghanaian play-maker Michael Helegbe is currently leading the league's goal chart with 14 goals, 7 assists in 11 games.
