“We’re happy to welcome Emmanuel Boateng to GoldStars! The exciting winger joins us on a 3-year deal from Tanzanian side Pamba Jiji FC.”
Boateng, who has also featured for Bofoakwa Tano, brings pace, flair, and attacking versatility to Bibiani’s flanks. Speaking to the club’s media team, the winger expressed his excitement about joining the league champions and compared his playing style to that of Barcelona’s teenage sensation, Lamine Yamal.
“I was very happy to get such a call to join the league champions,” Boateng said.
“I am a right winger — what we call the ‘Lamine Yamal position.’ I play like Lamine Yamal.”
Boateng’s arrival is part of an ambitious transfer window for Bibiani GoldStars, who are keen on building a competitive squad for their CAF Champions League debut. Alongside Boateng, the club has also secured the signings of Barimah Baah and Emmanuel Kontor, signaling their intent to perform strongly both locally and on the continental stage.
GoldStars’ impressive 2024/25 campaign, which culminated in winning the Ghana Premier League title, has elevated expectations among fans and analysts alike. The club is now focused on reinforcing its roster with proven talent to meet the demands of a packed fixture schedule that includes CAF inter-club competitions.
Boateng’s blend of experience and youthful energy is expected to add dynamism to the GoldStars attack. With preseason preparations underway, all eyes will be on the new signing to make an immediate impact as the team looks to replicate their domestic success on the African stage.
