Ghanaian youth international Abeiku Quansah has made his debut for French side Nice, just seven days after signing a contract with the club.

The 18-year-old was a second half substitute on Tuesday night as his top flight club brushed aside second division side Creteil 3-0 in the French Cup.

He came on as a substitute in the 84th minute to replace striker Modeste, who had scored the second goal in the comprehensive win.

Quansah's debut is a boost for his career with Nice, who are keen on giving him the opportunities afforded Michael Essien at Bastia before he was snapped up by Lyon.

The offensive midfielder signed a three-year contract last week after moving from local side Liberty Professionals.

Quansah, a starting player in Ghana's Under-17 squad at the recent World Youth Championships, joined the club's youth academy last December.
