Former Nsoatreman FC winger Walid Neymar is on the verge of becoming Asante Kotoko’s first signing ahead of the upcoming Ghana Premier League season.
Sources close to the club reveal that negotiations are nearly complete, with only final paperwork and formalities left to be sorted out.
Kotoko and the player’s representatives met last week to wrap up discussions, and both parties are optimistic the deal will be finalized in the coming days.
The highly-rated attacker, who impressed with his pace and flair during his time with Nsoatreman, had also attracted interest from Nations FC, but Kotoko appear to have won the race for his signature.
Walid Neymar’s addition is seen as part of Kotoko’s strategy to strengthen their squad for the new campaign, especially with ambitions of making a mark in continental competitions.
