Following his outstanding performance, the 27-year-old was signed on a permanent basis.

The Ghanaian attacker has chalked ninety-nine (99) appearances in the club’s shirt before their Wednesday’s game against Goztepe at away.

Ekuban has scored 28 goals and provided 17 assists in 100 matches for the club.

Speaking after the centenary game, he said, "We could not start as we wanted and fell behind. Then we were 10 people while we were going to get things together.”

“We won one point by scoring the goal, but more than one point was to show that stance. We showed that we will never give up. Our struggle will continue until the end of the league,"

He has scored 10 goals in the ongoing season for the side in 29 matches.
