Okrah fails medicals at Merrikh

Augustine Okrah's purported move to Sudanese side, Al-Marrikh has fallen through after failing his medicals.

A source in Sudan, told GNA Sports that the Bechem United striker failed his medials due to a knee injury.

The source said Merrikh cooled their interest in the last season's top scorer after doctors said that he will need not less than six months to spring back into shape.

The former BK Hacken striker, voted the best player in the First Capital Plus Premier League last season is said to be heading back to Ghana after Merrikh called off the deal, insisting they were not keen to wait on him.

Okrah, 21 arrived in Khartoum, Sudan, last week in hope to seal a two-year switch.

The striker recently returned from Swedish side, BK Hacken after a four-month loan spell.
