The Black Stars midfielder will be making his debut in Europe’s elite competition after helping Lens qualify for the UEFA Champions League for the first time in two decades.
Abdul Samed is expected to start against the Europa League winners as Lens look to get off to a positive start in Europe despite their domestic struggles.
