Ghana U20 and Cheetah FC midfielder Hayford Adu-Boahen has completed a permanent move to Israeli club FC Ashdod from Central Region-based side Cheetah FC.
The 21-year-old attacking midfielder signed a five-year contract after impressing during a successful trial period with the club.
Adu-Boahen is expected to use the Israeli league as a platform to further develop and showcase his talent as he targets a future move into mainstream European football.
At international level, he was part of coach Desmond Ofei’s squad that featured at the U20 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt last year, where Ghana exited the competition before the semi-final stage.
At club level, the highly rated midfielder captained Cheetah FC for two seasons in the Central Regional Division Two League.
He is known for his ability to control the tempo of games, with key attributes including pace, close control, vision and strong ball retention under pressure.
