Squad14 Jun 2027

Francis Acquah breaks a bone — 77 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 77 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match14 Jun 2027

The view from the top for Wa All Stars

84 points, and the rest of the division looking up. Every side that finishes first spends the season pretending it is not thinking about it, and this one has started pretending.

Market14 Jun 2027

Wa All Stars turn down Heart of Lions for Jeffrey Adjei

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

Transfer targets14 Jun 2027

Fee done, terms next for Dari Haruna

Wa All Stars and Asante Kotoko have settled on $230.0K. The rest belongs to the player and his agent, and a supporter who has watched one of these before knows not to buy the shirt yet.

Market14 Jun 2027

Andre Asante asks to leave Wa All Stars

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market14 Jun 2027

David Atiemo attracts admirers

The name of David Atiemo has come up in conversations Wa All Stars were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad14 Jun 2027

Wa All Stars count the cost of losing David Atiemo

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

Squad14 Jun 2027

Eric Oteng 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 Wa All Stars this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets14 Jun 2027

Door shut on Isaiah Nyarko

Wa All Stars asked and Bechem United said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match30 Jan 2027

Jonathan Paintsil leads the rout of BA All Stars

7‑1, and Jonathan Paintsil took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Wa All Stars tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Squad1 Feb 2027

Defences have started doubling up on Jonathan Paintsil

22 goals and a season average of 7.69 will do that. The space he used to find has gone; he keeps scoring anyway, which is the mark of the real thing.

Market1 Feb 2027

David Atiemo turns Berekum Chelsea down

“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

Player ratings1 Feb 2027

Both of them Jeffrey Adjei's — 9.38

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.38, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Player ratings1 Feb 2027

Jonathan Paintsil scores twice — 9.28

Two goals and a mark of 9.28 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Market1 Feb 2027

Reggiana come back empty-handed

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

Player ratings1 Feb 2027

Both of them Baba Schlupp's — 8.53

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.53, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad1 Feb 2027

Remember the name: Jeffrey Adjei

He is 21, he is averaging 7.48, and older professionals have started passing to him in the difficult minutes. That last part is the real scouting report.

The dugout1 Feb 2027

Andre Asante keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Wa All Stars may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Baba Schlupp scores twice — 8.51

Two goals and a mark of 8.51 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Match24 Oct 2026

Nobody wants to play Wa All Stars right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Match24 Oct 2026

Wa All Stars see off Aduana Stars

Three points for Wa All Stars, 2‑1 the final word against Aduana Stars in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Segun Owoade falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Wa All Stars keep their word to Muttaka Musa

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The manager’s verdict

“I am not going to get carried away and I will not let them either. It was a good day. There will be harder ones.” Ernest Amoah kept it short after the 2‑1 win, which is what managers do when they are happy.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Harrison Bukari beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 14. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Andre Asante 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.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The manager has not finished forgetting a squad player's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Muttaka Musa keeps Wa All Stars in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 8 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Match3 Oct 2026

Wa All Stars make it 5 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Wa All Stars have 5 straight wins of it.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Jeffrey Adjei, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 7.92

A mark of 7.92 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Squad5 Oct 2026

A falling-out at Wa All Stars

Eric Oteng and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match3 Oct 2026

Wa All Stars find a way past WAFA

WAFA made Wa All Stars work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑2 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Loan watch5 Oct 2026

Thomas Amoah has seen enough of Inter Allies

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Wa All Stars, and 0 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.

The terraces5 Oct 2026

One of their own: Thomas Atiemo

He is 21 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

A masterclass from Harrison Bukari

Marked 8.44 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Ninety minutes of Baba Schlupp at his very best

Marked 8.22. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Wa All Stars.

Match26 Sep 2026

Harrison Bukari leads the rout of Hearts of Oak

3‑0, and Harrison Bukari took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Wa All Stars tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

Both of them Harrison Bukari's — 8.47

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.47, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Jeffrey Adjei, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 7.62

A mark of 7.62 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Match26 Sep 2026

Wa All Stars cannot stop winning

4 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Squad28 Sep 2026

A falling-out at Wa All Stars

Baba Bukari and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Words at Wa All Stars training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Eric Oteng 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.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

A masterclass from Patrick Mensah

Marked 8.29 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

Yaw Annor 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.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

A satisfied Ernest Amoah

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 3‑0, Ernest Amoah could afford to be generous.
