I moved to India because of money – ex Ashantigold’s defender Osei Agyemang

Former AshGold defender Richard Osei Agyemang has disclosed reasons leading to his choosing a move to India.

Speaking to Wontumi FM, he said, no player can boast of 50k in their account from playing in the league for close to 6 years.
