Prince Tweneboah is a 19-year-old winger who plays for Basake Holy Stars in the Ghanaian Premier League. At the time of writing, he is tied for second in the GPL golden boot race with 7 goals in 18 appearances.
Tweneboah is around 5’8″ (1.72 m) with a fairly slender build. Tweneboah is extremely fast, at least relative to the rest of the GPL. This makes him a huge threat on balls played in behind the opposition defence. It also makes him quite difficult to stop in 1v1 situations. If Twenboah is isolated against the fullback, he can just knock the ball past his opponent and be gone. He also has some reasonable dribbling skills in situations that require a bit more finesse. Tweneboah is very good at changing direction quickly, which helps his dribbling a lot. That pivot strength also makes him decent at holding the ball up, despite not being a particularly big player. Tweneboah is capable of putting in dangerous crosses from the left wing, cutting inside onto his stronger right foot. However, his passing from deeper areas is not as good. He attempts a lot of long balls, switching play to the opposite wing, and these are almost always intercepted. He does not seem to be the greatest ball striker, regularly scuffing shots when he gets into dangerous areas. This is at least partially caused by the poor quality of pitches in the GPL, but even accounting for this, it stands out how frequently Tweneboah fails to get food power on a shot in a dangerous situation. His shot selection is generally good, something that stands out at this level, though he still does occasionally take shots from less-than-ideal positions.
Tweneboah does not have a high number of defensive actions. However, one area of defensive play he does excel in is winning the ball back quickly after he has lost it. It iss not uncommon to see a defender get the ball off of Tweneboah only for him to win it right back through his speed and decent lower-body strength.
I think Prince Tweneboah is quite good. His speed and skill make him a strong candidate to take a step to a higher level. It would probably require some intermediate steps, but in the long run, I could see him being a strong player in the Danish or Swedish leagues, which are common landing spots for African players.
