In a developing transfer story, Tanzanian giants Simba SC are attempting to secure the signature of Ghanaian forward Kwame Poku, who had been widely expected to return to his former club, Asante Kotoko. Poku, a free agent for over a year, recently received an offer from Simba SC, which has introduced a potential twist in his anticipated return to the Porcupine Warriors.
The offer from Simba SC was received last month, sparking discussions with Poku’s management. However, talks are still at an early stage, with negotiations yet to reach an advanced level. While the Ghanaian forward is reportedly open to various opportunities, this bid from Simba SC signals their interest in adding his talents to their squad.
Poku’s free-agent status has made him an attractive target for clubs looking for a proven goal-scorer without transfer fees. Since his departure from Asante Kotoko, he has been linked with a potential return to the Ghana Premier League. However, Simba SC’s entrance into the picture could sway his decision, especially as the Tanzanian club can offer competitive terms and the potential for CAF Champions League exposure.
The coming weeks will be critical, as both clubs aim to reach an agreement with Poku’s management. Asante Kotoko fans, hopeful for his return, now face anxious times as Simba SC aims to lure him to the Tanzanian Premier League.
