Danish-born Ghanaian attacker Danny Amankwaa will pick a league title-winning medal on Monday as FC Copenhagen won the Danish Superliga title on Monday.

Copenhagen were declared champions of the Danish top-flight league for the 11th time on Monday with three matches still remaining, by beating Nordsjælland 2-0 in the capital.

Amankwaa, 22, came off the bench late in the game to play for Copenhagen. His season had been mostly disturbed by injuries but he went ahead to play in the later stages of the season.

He signed a professional contract at Copenhagen at 2012 and has made 51 senior appearances for the club.

He has also played for Denmark at various youth levels including the FIFA U17 and U20 World Cups.

A brace for Paraguayan forward Federico Santander gave FC Copenhagen a fourth consecutive victory, and took them an unassailable ten points clear, meaning that they succeed last season's shock winners Midtjylland as champions.

It is a first Danish Superliga title for former Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Stale Solbakken since he took over as head coach in 2013, and it moves FC Copenhagen past rivals Brøndy's tally of league championships.
