Ghana Premier League champions, FC Samartex, have bolstered their attacking options with the signing of Mohammed Alhassan Mankuyeli from relegated Real Tamale United (RTU) on a three-year contract.
Mankuyeli’s impressive performances for RTU during the just-concluded Ghana Premier League season haven’t gone unnoticed.
He netted 11 goals in the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League season but his goals couldn’t prevent his team from being relegated.
However, his goal-scoring prowess attracted the attention of the league champions.
Mankuyeli’s talent was further highlighted during his participation in the All Star game at the third edition of the All Star Festival in Tamale at the Alui Mahama Stadium.
Although featuring as a second-half substitute in the match that ended 2-1 to the All Star team, he impressed with his skills.
FC Samartex, seeking to defend their championship title and potentially make a strong showing in the CAF Champions League, identified Mankuyeli as a key addition to their squad.
His goal-scoring record and performance in the league and his participation in the All Star game have convinced the champions to secure his services for the next three seasons.
This signing signals Samartex’s intent to maintain their dominance in the Ghanaian Premier League. Mankuyeli’s pace, finishing ability, and experience will be valuable assets for the team as they navigate the challenges of the upcoming season.
With a striker of Mankuyeli’s caliber joining their ranks, FC Samartex is shaping up to be a formidable force in the league once again.
