Kouame 'honoured' to play with Fiorentina's Ribery

Christian Kouame has narrated how he was ecstatic at seeing Franck Ribery after completing his loan move from Genoa to Fiorentina in January.

Ribery was a summer signing from Bayern Munich and has gone on to make 11 appearances, scoring two goals and providing another two assists.

The 22-year-old Kouame, though, is yet to make his debut for La Viola due to a crucial ligament injury which has kept him sidelined while still playing for his parent club.

"Once I was walking through the centre of Florence with my girlfriend who told me that she would like to live there one day," Kouame said as reported by Tuttomercato.
