Anderlecht give Frank Acheampong one-week rest period

Ghana's Africa Cup of Nations star Frank Acheampong has been given a one-week rest by his Belgian side Anderlecht.

Acheampong played in five matches at the tournament in Gabon after injury to Baba Rahman.

The 23-year-old will have no problems regaining his position in the team after making 17 appearances and two goals before the winter break.

Head coach René Weiler wants to give him more time to recover for the season.
