Martin Ericsson, the Sporting Director of BK Hacken, has expressed the club’s delight at playing a role in the career of Ghanaian winger Ibrahim Sadiq.
Sadiq, a former Ghana U17 star, made a move from Hacken to AZ Alkmaar on transfer deadline day, shortly after scoring a brace that helped the Swedish champions secure a spot in the group stage of the Europa League.
Sadiq had been one of the standout performers for the Yellow and Blacks since his arrival at the club in March 2022, contributing to their victories in the Swedish Cup and the Allsevenskan.
“He is perhaps the Allsvenskan’s best offensive player right now, he has an edge that we don’t often see in Swedish football. Ibra has far from had a smooth journey with us, but since the fall of 2022, I think there are few who have missed his progress,” said BK Häcken’s sporting director, Martin Ericsson.
“We are happy that we have been able to be part of his football journey and we wish him all the best in his new club,” he added.
Sadiq, a graduate of the Right to Dream Academy, amassed an impressive record of 37 goals and 11 assists in 56 games during his tenure at BK Hacken.
