Market8 Feb 2027

Liberty Professionals turn down Remo Stars for Isaac Essien

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad8 Feb 2027

Mohammed Inusah: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Liberty Professionals have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Match6 Feb 2027

4 matches without a win for Liberty Professionals

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Liberty Professionals are no longer polite ones.

Player ratings8 Feb 2027

Mohammed Acquah runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 22. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad8 Feb 2027

Tempers go at Liberty Professionals

Carlinhos 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.

Squad8 Feb 2027

Words at Liberty Professionals training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Hassan Aboul-Maati 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 watch8 Feb 2027

Andre Kyereh wants to come home

“I did not go to Inter Allies to sit and watch. I want to come back to Liberty Professionals and fight for my place.” 8 appearances in 24 matches say the rest.

Match6 Feb 2027

Liberty Professionals share the spoils with Medeama

A 1‑1 draw with Medeama leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Squad8 Feb 2027

Abdul Atiemo gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match25 Jan 2027

Every point is an argument now for Liberty Professionals

Position 16 and 12 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

Market25 Jan 2027

Harrison Atiemo hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Liberty Professionals can pretend not to have heard.

Squad25 Jan 2027

Liberty Professionals count the cost of losing Afriyie Partey

17 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Tempers go at Liberty Professionals

Carlinhos 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.

Squad25 Jan 2027

Words at Liberty Professionals training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Kwame Kyereh 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.

Match23 Jan 2027

A bad afternoon for Liberty Professionals against Hearts of Oak

0‑1 to Hearts of Oak, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Nana Paintsil breaks a bone — 22 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 22 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market17 Aug 2026

Thomas Mohammed’s move to Aduana Stars falls through

The deal that would have taken Thomas Mohammed to Aduana Stars has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Hasaacas with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Mustafa Yahaya 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 Hasaacas this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market17 Aug 2026

Bechem United come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Liberty Professionals did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Afriyie Partey 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 Liberty Professionals this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market17 Aug 2026

Liberty Professionals sign Isaac Essien, one for the future

Isaac Essien is 18, and Liberty Professionals have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.
