Dennis Appiah expected to help Osman Bukari settle in well at Nantes

Ghanaian attacker Osman Bukari has joined French-born Ghanaian defender Dennis Appiah at Nantes after completing a loan switch to the club on Thursday.

Bukari, 22, joins the club on a season-long loan move from Belgian Jupiler League side KRC Genk.

After making the switch from Belgian to the French top-flight league he will not be entirely alone at the club as he has a Ghanaian to keep his company.

Defender Appiah, who spent three seasons in Belgium playing for giants Anderlecht, is on his third season with Nantes and perfectly understands the French terrain after starting his youth career at AS Monaco.

Appiah is capped twice by French at U20 level and has a deeper appreciation of the switch of cultures between Belgium and France and his influence is expected to be key on the success of his countryman at his new club.
