28.04.2016 LISTEN

Ex-Ghana captain Stephen Appiah has hailed the three players from the West African country who are on the verge of sealing the English Premier League title with Leicester City.

Jeff Schlupp, Daniel Amartey and Joe Dodoo have played key roles for the Foxes who are currently top of the top table with three matches left and with a six-point lead.

Leciester City close in on a maiden Premier League title ahead of Sunday's clash against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

A win would guarantee them the title and Appiah says the Ghanaian trio must be hailed for the successes this term.

'Well, I am really impressed about our players out there especially in England and they are making us proud," Appiah said.

'We have five players in England and it's very exciting when you turn on your TV during the weekend and see players you have played with and Ghanaians performing in the Premier league.

'On the boys at Leicester I believe Schlupp is one of the key players for the team and I'm saying that because he got injured, went out for some month and came back with three games to the end of the season and the coach started him on Sunday. So that shows you how important he is to the team.

'For Amartey, I am so happy for him because you join a team like Leicester a couple of months ago and you are going to win a trophy.

'Leicester is not like Chelsea, Manchester United or Barcelona who can guarantee you trophies but this is Leicester and I think these things happen in life once in a million.'
