Surprisingly, some key players may not be available for Medeama SC when they play against Remo Stars in Sunday’s Champions League second leg match in Ikenne on Sunday. The president of the club, Moses Armah Parker has explained the reason why they have transferred nine players to Sirens FC in the Maltese Premier League at this point in time.
The nine players have signed professional contracts with the side to begin their European adventures.
Midfielders Kwasi Donsu and Prosper Owusu Boakye as well as forwards Charles Agyemang, Frank Boateng, Joshua Agyemang, Bismark Asare, and defenders Daniel Opoku and Moro Muktar will join the Maltese side this week after completing formalities”, the club stated it.
Winger Akadom Mohammed Hafiz completes the list of players leaving the club for Europe. “Kwasi Donsu, Frank Boateng, and Joshua Agyemang have signed a one-year loan deal while the remaining seven players have put pen to paper on a permanent contract”, Medeama SC confirmed.
Moses Armar Parker explained whilst speaking to a Ghanaian radio/TV sports presenter, Yaw Ampofo Ankrah also a president of Beach Soccer in Ghana.
“This is part of the Medeama SC plans and other we are looking for another proposal from Europe and Asia but for now this is the one that has been completed.
“I travelled to Malta a few weeks ago and spent several days concluding but the process/Scout began a year ago and with the official of Sirens FC coming to Ghana to scout for players.
“Players who have been registered for the CAF Champions league campaign will not be released but those who went were agreed upon before the 2022/23 League ended and we hope this will be a breakthrough for the players and also open doors for Ghanaian players from other clubs”, he explained.
“Never in the history of Ghana football to have ten players moving out once to a European destination and it shows the hard they put in. We also thank the management, technical team, and everybody involved, and mostly, it will motivate other players to work harder to get to that level”, He concluded.

Pyramids claim maiden African Champions League title

Egypt’s Pyramids claimed a deserved 2-1 victory over Mamelodi Sundowns from South Africa. This led to a 3-2 aggregate success. They celebrated their first African Champions League title. This triumph occurred following the second leg of this year’s final at the 30 June Stadium in Cairo on Sunday.
The first leg in Pretoria finished 1-1. Fiston Mayele gave Pyramids the lead on 23 minutes. He profited from a Sundowns defensive error. Ahmed Samy doubled the advantage on 56 minutes. He scored with a header from a free-kick.
Sundowns pulled a goal back through Iqraam Rayners with 15 minutes remaining. One more goal would have given them victory in the tie on the away goals rule. However, Pyramids held firm despite heavy pressure from the visitors.
Pyramids are the fourth Egyptian side to lift the Champions League trophy after record 12-time winners Al Ahly, Zamalek, and Ismaily. Meanwhile, 2016 champions Sundowns head to this month’s Club World Cup in the United States on a low note.
