The teenage sensation had this to say right after putting pen to paper: "It is a very big opportunity for me to represent such a well-known club as IFK Gothenburg. I am very much looking forward to moving to Gothenburg - to meet my new teammates."
Club's manager Ola Larsson added: "We have followed Rockson for over a year and seen him on site both in Ghana and in Greece. It is a big centre-back with a great physique, and who is also fast. We have also received good references from several parties, which has created an overall picture of a person and player who we believe will fit in very well at IFK Gothenburg."
