Badu looks to build on start

Udinese have become a major European career launching pad for many Ghanaian players in the past with Stephen Appiah, Mohammed Gargo, Sulley Muntari, Asaamoah Gyan and Kwadwo Asamoah all having made it their first point of call in the European.

Now Badu is keen to follow a similar path and after playing in a friendly against Partizan Belgrade earlier this week, Badu says he can't wait for his Serie A debut proper.

”Everyone was happy with the way the first game went but I know it was only a friendly and that I am yet to take the most important step,” he told kickoffGhana.com. “I hope it is a sign of good things to come though because I have come here determined to make my mark at the club.”
