NPFL : Ex-Black Star Goalkeeper Joins Wikki Tourists

By Sampson Adedeji

Ahead of new Nigeria Professional Football League season, Ghana goalkeeper Stephen Adams has joined Nigerian Premier League side Wikki Tourists FC on a free transfer, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The former Aduana Stars No.1 has signed a one-year contract.

''I have signed a one season deal with Wikki Tourists. I signed a year contract even though they wanted me for three years,'' Adams told Happy FM Sports.

''The contract is better than that of Ghana. When I left Zambia to Ghana I decided to go out and play and that is why I considered Nigeria despite interest from other Ghanaian clubs.''

Adams wants to follow the path of his fellow countrymen goalkeepers who have excelled in the Nigerian top-flight.

''When you compare Nigeria its far better and also the Ghanaian goalkeepers in Nigeria are doing very well so I also considered that. The likes of Fatau Daudu, Nana Bonsu have all performed well in the league,'' he added.

''I want to make a name for myself in Nigeria. It’s my dream to make a return to the Black Stars," he concluded.
