Kwadwo Asamoah has appealed to Ghana’s coach Kwesi Appiah to put him back in a more attacking role ahead of a key FIFA World Cup clash against Germany today.

“I’m the kind of player who attacks a lot. My style is different, I’m not a typical defender,” the Juventus midfielder said.

With World Cup survival probably hinging on Saturday’s game against an ominously strong looking Germany, Asamoah feels he is being underused.

“I attack, try to dribble one-on-one and make crosses and shots,” added Asamoah.

“I’m not a left back. And I’m finding it difficult because I’d like to show what I’m capable of and show that I can do more.”

Asamoah is primarily known for surging runs up and down the left flank that allow him to help out in defence while creating goalscoring opportunities for Juventus stars Carlos Tevez and Fernando Llorente.

He scored only two league goals last season, but one was a screamer from just inside the area that gave Juventus a precious 1-0 win over Fiorentina.
