Al Ahli Benghazi Sign Albert Amoah After Asante Kotoko’s CAF Confederation Cup Exit

0

Libyan giants Al Ahli Benghazi have officially announced the signing of striker Albert Amoah from Asante Kotoko SC shortly after the club’s painful exit from the CAF Confederation Cup.

The young forward, who was tipped by many as one of Kotoko’s brightest attacking prospects, will now continue his career in Libya — a move that has generated mixed reactions among fans and football pundits in Ghana.

Some supporters believe Albert Amoah’s decision to leave the Ghanaian giants so early is a result of financial pressure, with many stressing that patience could have opened bigger opportunities, including a potential Black Stars call-up for the upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026.

Football lovers also recalled a similar case involving Imoro Ibrahim, a former Kotoko defender who joined the same Libyan club under Coach Ogum’s era. Since that move, Imoro’s career has largely gone silent on the international stage, raising concerns about the long-term impact of such transfers.

While Al Ahli Benghazi expressed excitement over their new signing, Ghanaians continue to debate whether Amoah’s move is a step forward or a step backward in his promising career.

“Any artiste in Ghana can also do what I did at the Independence Square. Discipline and hard work. Please let us stop comparing us the artistes. Me, I’m tired of this time-wasting statements. I only came to show every youth the road — and that ‘IMPOSSIBLE GO TURN POSSIBLE’,” Shatta Wale said.

“Media houses, bloggers, TV and radio presenters, fans, artistes, pundits — it’s TIME for us to change the narratives. TIME NO DEH.

Let’s learn from the job and that should be that.”

He further explained that any player who previously turned down invitations without genuine reasons will not automatically be considered. “If you have turned us down before, there must be a valid reason why you want to come now,” he added.

Commitment Over Fame

Okraku made it clear that being talented alone is not enough. “We want players who are fully ready to die for Ghana on the pitch,” he said. According to him, the selection process will focus not just on ability but on attitude, history of commitment, and the player’s heart for the country.

This announcement has stirred discussions among fans and analysts. Many Ghanaians support the strict stance, seeing it as necessary to build a stronger, more united team.
