Kevin Niclas Mensah (Danish pronunciation: [ˈkεvin ˈneɡlas ˈmεnsa]; born May 15, 1991) is a Danish–Ghanaian footballer who plays for the Danish Superliga club Brøndby IF, as a forward. He is son of a father from Ghana and a mother from Denmark. His brother Jeff Mensah also plays professional football. He holds both a Ghanaian passport and a Danish passport.
Career
Mensah has previously been on trial at Premier League clubs Arsenal and Newcastle United for several laps despite his young age. He plays the ball with both his right-foot and left-foot,[1] and is described by his club as a technical marvel, an elegant offensive player with a wonderful technique that makes him a crowd favorite in addition of a footspeed that makes him uncomfortable to handle for any defender.
