Baba Yahaya, an exceptionally talented young player, is on the cusp of making a move from relegated King Faisal to join Asante Kotoko.
At the youthful age of 21, Yahaya has consistently demonstrated his remarkable potential over the past couple of seasons, showcasing his skills through outstanding performances for King Faisal.
He has carved out a reputation as the linchpin of their team, often relied upon to steer the squad towards victory, particularly when facing defensively oriented opponents.
In the previous league season, he made noteworthy contributions with three goals across 33 matches, including a standout strike against Legon Cities in Abrankese. His captivating exhibitions have not gone unnoticed by the Porcupine Warriors.
Reports suggest that Kotoko has initiated contact with Yahaya and his representatives, and discussions have reached an advanced phase, with an agreement on the horizon within the upcoming days. The talks have reportedly progressed to approximately 80% completion, signifying a strong likelihood of a successful transfer. The player has even journeyed to Beposo to meet with Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum, further affirming the progression.
Unfortunately, King Faisal FC has faced relegation to the second-tier league of the nation after securing the 17th position in the top-flight. However, a glimmer of hope remains for them to maintain their position in the upper division if they manage to succeed in their protest case against Tamale City.
