Market

Liberty Professionals say no — this time

The offer from Wa All Stars for Abraham Boakye was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Tempers go at Liberty Professionals

Christian Inusah 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.

Squad

Real improvement from Alessandro Pina at Liberty Professionals

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Alessandro Pina is 23, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Market

Abraham Boakye is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Liberty Professionals is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Boardroom

Abraham Boakye signs for Hasaacas while still at Liberty Professionals

The rules permit it and it stings anyway. Abraham Boakye has agreed terms with Hasaacas for the summer, and until then he pulls on this shirt as a player who has already chosen his next one.

Squad

Alessandro Pina is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 22 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad

Tempers go at Liberty Professionals

Anthony Omaka 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.

Squad

A late step up for Amos Paintsil

At 29 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Squad

Words at Liberty Professionals training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Claudio Fernández 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.

Loan watch

Afriyie Inusah counts the days

“I watch every Liberty Professionals game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Inter Allies runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Kwame Essien leaves for nothing

Contract settled, hands shaken, no fee changing hands. Kwame Essien leaves Liberty Professionals the quiet way, and the wage bill breathes a little easier.

Baba Paintsil leaves for nothing

Contract settled, hands shaken, no fee changing hands. Baba Paintsil leaves Liberty Professionals the quiet way, and the wage bill breathes a little easier.
