Courage Pekuson, the Ghanian Under 23 international is another young exciting prospect this coming season.

The youngster will have to play under peer pressure due to the lack of attacking midfielders in the squad, and if he does well enough in that role, feeding the likes of Iain Hume or CK Vineeth or Dimitar Berbatov in front of him, he can take the Blasters all the way to the title. It will make him an instant hero and also create opportunities for him to play abroad, as we have seen in the case of Josu Currais, who now plies his trade in the USL outfit FC Cincinnati.
