Hearts of Oak forward, Daniel Afriyie Barnieh has agreed to join Swiss topflight side FC Zurich, per exclusive reports in the local media.
The 21 year old's contract with the 'Phobians' was supposed to runout today, December 31, 2022 but has agreed to sign a short extension which permits him to feature in the 2022 African Nations Championship
The Rainbow Club have agreed to take $150,000 for the transfer of their marksman, whom many a football faithful believe he should have worth more than that but included an onward transfer benefit of 40%.
The enterprising forward will definitely be remembered following his outstanding and consistent high-level display for Hearts of Oak and won five trophies including the GPL which had eluded them for over a decade.
He captained the Black Satellites to the WAFU and African Youth Championship within that period and is now the captain of the Black Meteors who edged past Mozambique in the first phase of the Africa U-23 Championship qualifiers.
Barnieh, 21, made the Black Stars final squad for the just ended 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
He is currently with the home-based national team in Egypt as they continue with preparations towards the 2022 CHAN tournament which starts in few weeks from now.
