Reigning Ghana Premier League champions FC Samartex are poised to announce Christopher Ennin as their new head coach ahead of the second phase of the 2024/25 season.
Ennin’s appointment follows the resignation of Nurudeen Amadu, who led the Timber Giants for three successful seasons, culminating in their historic first league title last season. Amadu’s departure left a significant void, prompting an extensive search for a suitable successor.
After weeks of speculation, Samartex have settled on Christopher Ennin, a highly-rated tactician who recently stepped down from his role at Moneni Pirates, a Premier League club in Eswatini. According to sources, Ennin has agreed to a two-year contract with the Ghanaian champions, with an official announcement expected soon.
Samartex’s title defense has been underwhelming so far, with inconsistent performances putting their championship ambitions at risk. The club hopes Ennin’s expertise will help restore their form and bolster their quest for back-to-back titles.
Ennin earned acclaim during his tenure at Berekum Chelsea, where his tactical acumen and results made him a sought-after coach. Earlier this year, he was linked with a move to Accra Hearts of Oak, but the deal did not materialize.
As Samartex prepares for the second half of the season, the arrival of Christopher Ennin marks a pivotal step in their efforts to reclaim their dominance in the Ghana Premier League.
