Medeama SC has set their sights on Hearts of Oak midfielder Salifu Ibrahim as a potential transfer target for the upcoming season, Sportsworldghana.com can exclusively confirm.
The Yellow and Mauves are actively searching the transfer market for quality players to strengthen their squad for the 2023/24 season where they will be participating in the CAF Champions League, and Salifu Ibrahim has emerged as a key target.
While Medeama has not yet submitted an official offer to Hearts of Oak, they have engaged in discussions with the player’s representative, Mr. Asiedu Benedict.
However, Salifu Ibrahim and his representative have declined Medeama’s approach and have expressed their respect for Hearts of Oak. They have encouraged Medeama to hold direct talks with the Phobians regarding the midfielder’s potential transfer.
Sources familiar with the situation have confirmed that Hearts of Oak and Salifu Ibrahim are in discussions for a contract extension. The negotiations have not encountered major obstacles, and both parties are optimistic that an agreement will be reached in the near future.
In the previous season, the 23-year-old midfielder showcased his talent by scoring 4 goals and providing 3 assists in 23 games for Hearts of Oak. He joined the Phobians in February 2021 on a three-and-a-half-year deal from Techiman Eleven Wonders and played a crucial role in the team’s success, helping them secure their first league trophy in eleven years and clinching the FA Cup.
