Market

$220.0K — a new record at Aduana Stars

No footballer has ever cost this club more, and the number will be read out every time he misplaces a pass for the next two years.

Squad

Gregory Sekyere stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Gregory Sekyere and Aduana Stars agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Tempers go at Aduana Stars

Stephen Badu was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The terraces

$220.0K for Joseph Wakaso, and Aduana Stars supporters approve

Boards get told what they have done wrong for years and hear nothing on the days they get it right. This is one of those days: Joseph Wakaso from WAFA for $220.0K, and a ticket office having a very good morning.

Squad

Words at Aduana Stars training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ismail El Haddad is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

Abdul-Aziz Nurudeen attracts admirers

The name of Abdul-Aziz Nurudeen has come up in conversations Aduana Stars were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad

Lungelo Nguse gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Lungelo Nguse has just signed for Aduana Stars, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

Stephen Badu signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Stephen Badu commits to Aduana Stars for another 3 years.

Squad

Stephen Badu in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Aduana Stars this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Aduana Stars training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Samuel Kuffour is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

Talks stall between Aduana Stars and Daniel Awuni

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Market

Nobody at Aduana Stars has picked up the phone to Stephen Badu

36 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.
