Years on, the brain behind the reality show has revealed how much he sold the talented left footed player to the Porcupine Warriors. Talal Fattal who was the orchestrator of the Soccer academy and the manager of the player at the time has opened the lid on the cost of the player.
“I sold him to Asante Kotoko because as part of the deal we also had a local club Zaytuna FC we sold him to Kotoko at one of the highest prices at the time 50 thousand Ghana cedis (GH 50, 000) then, now is still big money” Talal Fattal told Nabil Fatawu on Joy sports
Gideon Baah’s played a total of 30 games and scored two goals for the Porcupine Warriors until he suffered a horrible injury which truncated his carrier at Kotoko. Gideon Baah recovered and later moved to Finland to sign for FC Honka and HJK Helsinki
