Ghana winger, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku has been named in the Premier League Team of The Week following his impressive display for Leicester City's comeback win at Southampton.

The Ghana international climbed off the bench to inspire the Foxes from two goals down to an incredible 3-2 victory at the St. Mary's on Saturday.

Issahaku had a great impact in the game, setting up Facundo Buonanotte in the 64th minute as Leicester pulled one back.

The Black Stars forward then hit the crossbar with a ferocious strike moments later before Jamie Vardy levelled from the spot.

Compatriot Jordan Ayew stole the winner deep in injury-time for the visitors.

Issahaku had the most touches in the opposition boxes in the 31 minutes he played and changed the game for Leicester City.

"What an impact! He changed the game for Leicester City when he came on, setting up the first goal and providing a constant threat down the right," wrote Alan Shearer, who produces the Premier League Team of the Week.
