Swedish Superettan outfit Varbergs BoIS has announced the signing of German-born Ghanaian forward Kevin Appiah Nyarko on a free transfer.
The 22-year-old former SC Fortuna Köln youth star joins the club following the expiration of his contract with lower division side IK Brage. Nyarko expressed his excitement about the move and is eager to contribute to his new team.
“I am very happy to come to a big club like Varbergs BoIS. I feel ready to start playing and help the team win more games. It is a very lovely city with nice people and I am very excited to start this journey,” Nyarko said in an interview with the club’s official website.
Sporting director Thomas Askebrand is confident that Nyarko will make an impact on the team. “As we have said before, we have had some problems with injuries throughout the spring. The autumn is also long, and with Kevin, we get a fourth player. Kevin fits the way we want to play; he is tough to face, physically strong, good at turning the ball, runs deep but also does the job defensively. This creates opportunities for us in our offensive game. Varbergs BoIS warmly welcomes Kevin to the club!”
Born and raised in Germany to Ghanaian parents, Nyarko remains eligible to represent Ghana at the international level. With his signing, Varbergs BoIS strengthens their attacking options ahead of the upcoming season.
