'It feels good as l am super happy' - Dutch-born Ghanaian starlet Levi Acheampong on cloud nine after scoring his first goal for Ajax U21 against FC Eindhoven in the Eerste Divisie

The promising sensation prospect of Ghanaian heritage is on cloud nine after netting his first goal for the Young Lancers against the Blue-Whites in the Dutch second-tier contest on Friday

Dutch-born Ghanaian starlet Levi Acheampong has expressed his excitement after scoring his first goal for Jong Ajax in their 3-0 away win over FC Eindhoven in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie.

The 18-year-old attacking midfielder, who was promoted from the Ajax U19 to the Ajax U21 in the summer of 2026, found the back of the net on the 54th-minute after team-mate Emre Ünüvar broke the deadlock of the game on the 41st-minute before ltalian budding star Diego Pugno rounded up the victory for his visiting side at the Jan Louwers Stadion over the encounter.

Speaking in an interview, the Ghana-prospect youth prodigy could not hide his elation after bagging his first goal of the season for the Ajax reserve side by telling Ajax Showtime: '''It feels good, it's a relief, because I hit the crossbar and the post earlier this season. I also missed chances that I really should have scored. I'm super happy.''

The Ajax academy graduate added on his ambitions for the ongoing campaign: ''To play as many matches as possible. I didn't complete the full ninety minutes at the away game against Jong FC Utrecht. I also want to be more involved in goals and assists. That is important for the team.''

Levi has so far taken in 13 appearances by scoring onces and assisting twice for Jong Ajax in this current 2026/27 Keuken Kampioen Divisie.

Given his dazzling talent, the Ghana senior national team could benefit from his potential at the international level provided the Ghana FA are able to secure his international allegiances from the Netherlands to Ghana by playing for the Black Stars in the near future having featured for the Netherlands U15, U16, U17, U18 & U19 national youth teams so far in his international football career.
