Bechem United signs veteran goalie Osei Boateng

Footy-ghana.com understands that former Asante Kotoko and New Edubiase United goalkeeper Osei Boateng has signed for Premier League returnees Bechem United.

According to our sources, Bechem United had shortlisted Boateng, former Hearts of Oak and Black Stars goalkeeper Sammy Adjei and former New Edubiase United custodian Eric Nii Baah before plumping for Osei Boateng.

Boateng played for Asante Kotoko in the 2002 African Cup Winners Cup final against Wydad Casablanca, and he was also the first choice goalkeeper as Ghana’s Black Starlets reached the final of the 1997 FIFA Under 17 World Cup in Egypt.

Footy-ghana.com can also confirm that Bechem United has also sealed the captures of former King Faisal and Berekum Chelsea striker Prince Arko and former Wa All Stars and Asante Kotoko attacker Daniel Bomfah, with Heart of Lions forward Daniel Bonsu set to join them after his contract with the Kpando-based club expires on August 23.

Footy-ghana.com sources also reveal that Richard Addae, who left the club for Hearts of Oak last season, is back training with the club.
