Felix thankful for 'huge honour' of representing Roma


After completing his move to Cremonese on Monday, forward Felix Afena-Gyan posted a heartfelt farewell to Roma.

The 19-year-old forward, who joined the Giallorossi at the start of 2021, emerged as a member of the first-team squad under Jose Mourinho - scoring his two Serie A goals to date during an unforgettable cameo appearance against Genoa last season.

The Ghana international credited Mourinho with "changing his life" - while he also paid tribute to his old Primavera coach, Alberto De Rossi, and to the rest of the Roma setup.
