Ghana striker, Felix Afena-Gyan has lauded his former boss, Jose Mourinho, describing the Portuguese tactician as his second father.
The 20-year-old forward joined the Serie A side, AS Roma in January 2021, and after six months with the U-19 team, he was drafted into the senior team following his impressive performance with the junior side.
The young striker is famously remembered under Mourinho when he came off the bench to score a brace to help Roma beat Genoa. He finished the season with a medal as Roma won the Europa Conference League.
“Mourinho is my second father. He made me who I am today,” he told La Gazzeta Dello Sport.
Afena-Gyan joined Cremonese on a permanent basis from Roma at the start of the current season and is still developing.
