Kwame Opoku joins GoldStars teammates in training ahead of GHALCA Top 4

Bibiani GoldStars forward Kwame Opoku has begun training with his teammates as the club gears up for the GHALCA Top 4 tournament and the upcoming 2026/27 season. The 27-year-old was photographed at the University of Ghana Stadium on Tuesday, August 25, taking part in his initial training sessions with the GoldStars squad following his transfer from Asante Kotoko.

Opoku finalized his move to the Miners this week, signing a contract that will keep him at the club for the new season. His presence provides the GoldStars with an experienced attacking option as they prepare for a demanding season. Opoku returns to the Ghana Premier League after playing in Algeria and Morocco previously, including stints with USM Alger and Olympique Khouribga.

His first Kotoko season was noteworthy, netting six goals and providing three assists in 16 appearances during the 2020/21 campaign, which led to his move to Algeria. However, his second spell with the club was hindered by injuries, failing to replicate the same level of impact. GoldStars hope that a fresh start will enable Opoku to regain his optimal form.

His first competitive match with the new club is likely to be the GHALCA Top 4, which starts on Wednesday, August 26, 2026. The Minsters will face reigning league champions Medeama in their opening fixture at the University of Ghana Stadium, followed by games against Dreams FC and FC Samartex. The tournament offers Opoku an immediate chance to integrate with his new teammates and secure valuable playing time before the new Ghana Premier League season begins.

GoldStars, who clinched the Ghana Premier League title in the 2024/25 campaign, aim to make another strong push for honors, with Opoku expected to contribute goals and attacking prowess.
