Ghanaian teenager Emmanuel Abrokwa has taken a major step in his football career after joining Spanish La Liga side Sevilla from Ghanaian club Adabraka Elders.
The 18-year-old winger has signed a contract that will keep him at the Spanish club until 2029, marking a historic moment for both the player and Ghanaian football.
He becomes the first Ghanaian player in Sevilla’s history and the first to join the club directly from a Ghana-based team.
Abrokwa’s move comes after impressive performances with Adabraka Elders, where his pace, dribbling and attacking ability attracted interest from clubs in Europe.
Before joining Adabraka Elders, the youngster developed his skills at Peace Boys FC. His progress at the Accra-based club eventually brought him to the attention of European scouts and Sevilla, who invited him for a trial before completing the transfer.
The young winger is expected to begin his career in Spain with Sevilla’s Juvenil A, the club’s Under-19 side. This will give him the opportunity to adapt to Spanish football, improve his technical abilities and gradually work towards playing at a higher level.
Abrokwa has also represented Ghana at youth level, he played as Ghana U-19.
