Tusker FC striker Ryan Ogam has shared that transitioning from midfield to attack at the start of the season was a smooth move for him, as it is a position he has played before.When Ogam joined the Brewers in August from Rainbow FC, he was primarily a defensive midfielder.However, coach Charles Okere, who had worked with him during his younger years, decided to deploy him as a striker—an unexpected change for those familiar with Ogam’s role in both the club and junior national teams as a midfielder.##NAJAVA_MECA_8511246##Just a few matches into the new season, Ogam’s performance has validated Okere’s decision. He is now among the top scorers in the league, sharing the top spot with five goals despite missing half of the eight games so far due to injury.In an interview with the club’s media team, Ogam explained that he was not concerned about the positional shift, as he was simply returning to a role he had previously played in school.“Moving from midfield to attack wasn’t a big issue for me; I wasn’t worried,” Ogam said. “Before I joined Rainbow FC, I played as a striker in school at Dagoretti High School, and I was the top scorer in the school games.”We want to be Sunday’s talk of town- AFC Leopards defenderOgam also emphasized that versatility is an important trait for any good player. “A good player should be able to adapt to different roles. So, transitioning from midfield to striker was not a challenge for me.”Looking ahead, Ogam has set his sights on winning the Golden Boot this season. He aims to score at least ten goals in the first half of the campaign.“I feel I’ve started well, although injury has slowed me down. But I’m feeling strong and fit and am eager for the rest of the season. I want to hit 10 goals by the end of the first leg—this will be a good step toward the Golden Boot.”AFC Leopards coach urges fans to set aside title aspirations
