Afriyie Acquah thanks influential football agent Oliver Arthur after sealing Al Batim transfer
Ghana midfielder Afriyie Acquah has expressed gratitude to manager Oliver Arthur for brokering his deal to Saudi Arabian side Al Batin.
Acquah, 29, penned a two-year contract with Al Batim on Monday.
The experienced enforcer moved to the Sky Blue side as a free agent after ending his two-year stay with Turkish outfit Yeni Malatyaspor at the business end of last term.
The deal which was negotiated by Ghana’s influential football agent Oliver Arthur will see Acquah become one of the highest paid players in the Saudi top-flight.
The former TSG Hoffenheim player was grateful to his manager Arthur for the transfer and used the chance to send an encouraging message to Al Batim faithful.
“I want to thank my manager Oliver Arthur and the hierarchy of Batim and their fans for this opportunity. I’ll give my all at the club. See you soon,” Acquah remarked.
Al Batin played in the Saudi top division for the first time last term and finished 12th.
Head coach Aleksandar Veselinović will be counting on the rich experience of the former Parma, Sampdoria and Torino star to improve their fortunes this season.
