Ghanaian forward Jerry Afriyie has made headlines by signing a long-term deal with Saudi Pro League side Al Qadsiah. The transfer from Thoughts FC is seen as a major step in the career of the talented Black Stars forward. As part of the agreement, Afriyie will spend the remainder of the season on loan with Spanish Segunda División side CD Lugo, where he is expected to gain valuable European experience.
Afriyie, a rising star in Ghanaian football, first caught the public’s attention during his time with the Ghana U-20 team at the WAFU U-20 Zone B tournament. Despite Ghana falling short of lifting the trophy, Afriyie’s individual brilliance was undeniable, showcasing his skill, creativity, and eye for goal.
His performances at the youth level earned him a well-deserved call-up to the Black Stars during the AFCON qualifiers, where he made an immediate impact. The forward’s ability to take on defenders, create scoring opportunities, and deliver clinical finishes has made him a player to watch in Ghana’s senior national team.
Afriyie’s transfer marks yet another success story for Ghanaian football, as local talents continue to shine on the global stage. Fans will eagerly follow his journey in both Saudi Arabia and Spain, hoping to see the young forward reach new heights in his promising career.
