How much Barcelona paid to sign Abdul Aziz from Dreams FC - Saddick Adams details

Abdul Aziz Abdul Aziz

Dreams FC wonderkid, Abdul Aziz Issah, became the second Ghanaian to join Barcelona from the Ghana Premier League.

Aziz completed the dream move in the final days of the transfer window, signing an initial loan deal until June 2025.

According to Saddick Adams, the Spanish giant paid 1 million euros after initially offering 400,000 euros.

"Barcelona offered 400,000 euros, but the transfer ended up costing them 1 million," he said on Angel TV.

Aziz joined David Oduro as Barcelona's two signings from the Ghanaian top flight.

Saddick Adams opined that the duo's move will positively impact future sales of Ghana Premier League players if they deliver.

"Our reputation as a country will rise depending on how they (Aziz and Oduro) fare. Oduro is a very good player, as well as Aziz."

Aziz Issah will join the club’s B team, known as Barcelona Atlètic, for the 2024-2025 season.

Unlike Aziz, who joined Barcelona on an initial loan deal, Oduro joined on a permanent deal, signing a three-year contract.
