Ghanaian midfielder Salifu Ibrahim has officially departed the country to finalize his move to FC Drita in Kosovo. The highly-skilled player has been a standout in the Ghana Premier League for the past five seasons, showcasing his creativity on the field.
Ibrahim, who previously played for Techiman Eleven Wonders, was unable to reach an agreement on a contract extension with Hearts of Oak. The 24-year-old was an integral part of the team last season, but negotiations broke down when he requested a monthly salary of $2,500 post-tax, a figure that the club was unable to meet.
As a result of the salary dispute, Ibrahim’s agent and the club were unable to come to terms, ultimately leading to his departure from Hearts of Oak. The midfielder is now on the verge of joining FC Drita, with reports indicating that he is set to sign a two-year deal with the option for an additional year.
Ibrahim’s move to Kosovo represents a new chapter in his career as he looks to make an impact with his new club. His departure from Ghana marks the end of an era with Hearts of Oak, but fans will undoubtedly be eager to see what the talented midfielder can achieve in Europe.
