Afriyie Asante steps up from the Berekum Chelsea academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Afriyie Asante has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Muhammed Kabiru needs a bigger stage
He is doing things every Saturday that nobody around him can answer. It is flattering for a season and a problem after that, and Berekum Chelsea know which stage they are at.

No place for Nicholas Ablido in the new shape
He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation Berekum Chelsea are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.
