In a dramatic twist that has stunned fans and silenced transfer gossip, Ghana Premier League topscorer Stephen Amankona is not going anywhere—at least for now.
Amid swirling rumours of big-money moves and interest from local giants and foreign suitors, the Berekum Chelsea talisman has reportedly decided to commit his immediate future to the club that revived his career and made him a household name once again.
The 25-year-old striker, who lit up the 2024/25 GPL season with a stunning tally of 15 goals, was widely tipped to make a high-profile switch following his heroics. Hearts of Oak, Asante Kotoko, and even clubs from South Africa and North Africa were said to be sniffing around.
But in a move that has delighted the Berekum faithful, club insiders confirm that Amankona is set to stay and lead the line for the Blues next season.
“He’s happy here, and the club is building around him. Amankona believes in the project,” a source close to the player told Kickgh.com.
Amankona, who returned to Berekum Chelsea in early 2023 after a stint with Kotoko, has been nothing short of electric this season—bagging match-winners, terrorizing defenders, and proving his doubters wrong.
His decision to stay is a major boost for Berekum Chelsea, who are eyeing a strong title push next season. And for fans who feared they had seen the last of his magic in Berekum colours, this news is pure gold.
Stay tuned—because the Goal King cum Goal Wizard isn’t done writing his story just yet with the Bibires.
