Lawrence Agyekum named Cercle Brugge Player of the Month

New Black Stars midfielder Lawrence Agyekum has been voted Player of the Month for March at Cercle Brugge.

The hardworking midfielder received the most votes from fans, surpassing Lucas Perrin to be named the club’s best player for the month.

Agyekum, who earned his first call-up to the Ghana national team during the March international break, capped off an impressive period by scoring his first league goal in the Belgian Pro League.

In March, he made five appearances for the club, starting all of the matches.

“With more than half of the votes you elected Lawrence Agyekum as Golden Player of the Month March! Well deserved, Lawrence!” posted Cercle Brugge on social media. 

The 21-year-old will be hoping to end the season on a high as Cercle Brugge compete in the promotion-relegation play-off in Belgium.

The former West Africa Football Academy player made his Ghana debut in the World Cup qualifier against Chad.
