Ghana striker Joel Fameyeh joins Russian side Rubin Kazan

Ghana forward Joel Fameyeh sealed a transfer move to Russian outfit Rubin Kazan in the summer transfer window.

The Black Stars forward has put pen to paper on a three-year contract with the relegated side from newly promoted Russian club FC Orenburg.

The former Asokwa Deportivo star played a key role as Orenburg secured promotion through playoffs, but decided to not extend his stay.

His contract with Orenburg ends on June 30. He joined Kazan on a free transfer.

Fameyeh is expected to help Rubin Kazan make a quick return to the topflight following his experience in the second tier.

Last season, Fameyeh netted 15 goals and provided six assist at Orenburg.
