Former Black Stars midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu has been appointed International Relations Manager at Ghana Premier League side Aduana FC.
In his new role, Agyemang-Badu will help establish structures to enhance player development and exposure, while leveraging his network to build strategic partnerships for the club.
The appointment was officially confirmed on Wednesday, January 28, during a training session with the team.
Addressing management, technical staff, and players, Agyemang-Badu expressed gratitude to the club’s owner, Nana Agyemang Badu II, and outlined his vision for Aduana FC’s future.
“First, I thank Nana Agyemang Badu II, the management, CEO Atta Poku, and the technical team. I was able to monitor your last game. I am here to help the club succeed. What I know about football is that when someone invests in the game, they have to benefit from it,” he said.
He emphasized the need for strong structures and marketable quality, noting that the club must position itself to attract opportunities beyond local support.
“It is not always that CEO Atta Poku will go to Nana for support; we have to be able to deliver quality, and that quality could sell itself. I have to create links out there. Although I have links already, we need to create new ones as well. We need to sell the name Aduana,” he added.
Aduana FC will hope that Agyemang-Badu’s addition to the management team helps guide the club toward sustained growth on and off the pitch.
Meanwhile, the two-time Ghana Premier League champions will face FC Samartex in their Matchday 21 fixture at the Nana Agyemang Badu I Park.
