Accra Hearts of Oak has accepted an offer from Singaporean side Duli Pengiran Muda Mahkota Football Club (DPMM FC) for their talented forward, Asamoah Boateng. The 22-year-old striker, who has been a key figure for Hearts of Oak in recent seasons, is set to embark on a new journey in the Singapore Premier League with a contract extending for two and a half years.
The transfer fee reportedly amounts to $150,000, a significant amount that will boost Hearts’ finances as they seek to reinforce their squad. For DPMM FC, the acquisition of Boateng is seen as a strategic move to bolster their attack. Known for his speed, skill, and knack for goal-scoring, Boateng’s addition could bring a new dimension to their forward line.
This transfer also highlights the growing visibility of Ghanaian players in Asian leagues, with more African talent being scouted and signed by clubs in the region. For Hearts, this move is bittersweet; while they lose a valuable player, the financial reward and potential for further international exposure are substantial.
Boateng’s move to Singapore marks a new chapter in his career. Fans will be keen to see how he adapts to the new environment and league, while Hearts of Oak will look to strengthen their squad with the funds received as they push for domestic and continental success.
