Rwandan football giants APR FC have made a major coup by signing former Asante Kotoko midfielder Richmond Lamptey on a two-year deal.
The 27-year-old Ghanaian has penned a lucrative contract worth over USD 5,000 per month and is expected to be a key player for the Kigali-based team in the upcoming season.
Lamptey, who parted ways with Kotoko after his contract expired following a three-year stint, was instrumental in the club’s Premier League victory in his debut season. He made 17 league appearances and contributed five assists in the recently concluded season.
The experienced midfielder has also represented the Black Stars in international competitions, including the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Côte d’Ivoire. His signing is a significant boost for APR FC, who are looking to build a strong squad to compete in continental competitions.
Lamptey’s versatility and vision on the pitch will undoubtedly be an asset to the team as they aim to achieve success in their upcoming campaign. The move provides him with a new challenge and opportunity to further his career, and he is expected to play a key role for APR FC.
