An average height player who is easily mistaken for Arsenal’s Patrick Vieira not only because of resemblance in their facial appearance, but also in their similarity of works mostly.

Ben Teekloh is one of George Weah's accepted Liberian players and despite his age, George Weah recruited him into the senior national team in 2001.

As a member of the 2002 African Nations Cup Liberia National team, Ben Teekloh is among the few multi-purpose players Liberia can vouch of.

A utility player you might call him, but he is able to line-up in any defensive role, as a full midfielder or a cum-midfielder.

He’s a defender because of his sweeping roles and ability to wrestle and dispossess his opponents at great simplicity.

He’s a full midfielder because he is able to spread acute defense splitting passes and ability to juggle the ball with great pace in the thick and thin of the game.

Most appreciatively, Ben doesn’t only play as the coach instructs, he plays as the tempo of game dictates, which makes most coaches comfortable with him.
