Legon Cities FC have captured highly-rated forward Richmond Antwi in the ongoing Ghana Premier transfer window.

Antwi has joined the Accra Sports Stadium outfit on a three-year contract but waiting to make it official when the second round transfer window opens on February 12.

The 20-year-old had been unattached before joining the Royals as he did not extend his stay at Sudanese side Al-Merrikh SC.

He was top scorer of the Sudanese Premier League in 2018/2019 where he netted 19 goals for Al Khartoum Al Watani.

Antwi joined Al-Merrikh halfway in the 2019/2020 season scoring 7 goals in 13 matches to helped them clinch the Sudan Premiership title.

Legon Cities sit 13th position on the Ghana Premier League table with 14 points after matchday 13.
