Dreams FC is reportedly making a last-ditch effort to hijack Sampson Eduku’s anticipated move to Ghana Premier League giants, Asante Kotoko. The former Tamale City striker, who was the top scorer in the 2022/23 GPL season, is currently training with the Porcupine Warriors in Kumasi and is widely expected to ink a two-and-a-half-year deal during the January transfer window.
Eduku, who previously plied his trade in Iraq, is currently a free agent following the expiration of his contract. His goal-scoring exploits in the domestic league, coupled with his international experience, have made him one of the most sought-after strikers in the Ghana Premier League.
The Still Believe club reportedly views Eduku as the ideal forward to help push their ambitions in the second round of the league season.
Despite Dreams FC’s interest, Asante Kotoko holds a significant edge in the transfer race. Eduku has already begun integrating with the squad in Kumasi, indicating a strong willingness to join the club. Furthermore, the Porcupine Warriors’ rich history and current resurgence under coach Prosper Narteh Ogum are appealing factors for the player.
Sampson Eduku made a name for himself during the 2022/23 season, netting 14 goals for Tamale City. Although the team was relegated, his individual performances caught the eye of several clubs. His brief stint in Iraq further highlighted his adaptability and professionalism.
With the January window fast approaching, Eduku’s next move will likely be finalized soon. Asante Kotoko fans will hope to see the striker don their iconic red jersey, but Dreams FC’s late intervention could provide a twist in this unfolding transfer saga.
For now, all eyes remain on the forward and his next decision.
