GoldStars sign former Asante Kotoko striker Kwame Opoku

Bibiani GoldStars have brought on former Asante Kotoko striker Kwame Opoku for a one-year term ahead of the 2026/27 Ghana Premier League season. The 27-year-old forward officially joined the team on Sunday, strengthening the Miners' offensive lineup for the upcoming campaign. GoldStars communicated their excitement about welcoming Opoku with the message, "WELCOME TO THE MINERS, KWAME OPOKU! Former Asante Kotoko player Kwame Opoku has officially joined the Miners. Welcome to Bibiani GoldStars!"

Opoku departed Asante Kotoko for the second time due to injuries and limited playing time. Prior to his latest stint with Kotoko, he had two-and-a-half years with the club, interrupted by previous periods with Algerian side USM Alger and Moroccan club Olympique Khouribga. During his initial spell with Kumasi's Porcupine Warriors in the 2020/21 season, Opoku demonstrated his potential as a goal scorer, netting six goals and providing three assists in just 16 appearances. This promising performance led to his transfer abroad.

Unfortunately, his return to Asante Kotoko proved challenging. Injuries hindered his progress and limited his opportunities to impact the team significantly. Now, GoldStars anticipate that a move to Bibiani will offer Opoku a fresh chance to regain his form and make a more substantial contribution to the Ghana Premier League.
