Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Jonathan Asante

16 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. WAFA lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market

Andre Kyereh has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around WAFA they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

Omar El Azab 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 WAFA this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

BA All Stars expected to open talks for Afriyie Annan

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. WAFA will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Squad

Omar El Azab has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at WAFA will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Market

Still no ink between WAFA and Mohamed Berzoimi

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at WAFA, another week without a signature from Mohamed Berzoimi.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Jonathan Asante

23 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. WAFA lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market

BA All Stars join the queue for Afriyie Annan

Add another name to the list: BA All Stars have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Afriyie Annan. The answer from WAFA has not changed — yet.

Market

Heart of Lions come back empty-handed

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

Market

Patrick Ofori is on his way

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

Squad

Amos Djiku signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Amos Djiku commits to WAFA for another 2 years.

Squad

Tempers go at WAFA

Omar El Azab 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.
