Ghanaian winger Mohammed Fuseini has completed a move to Belgian club Royale Union Saint-Gilloise (RUSG) for a reported fee of €2 million. The 22-year-old caught the attention of scouts during his loan spell at Randers last season.

Fuseini underwent medical examinations on Monday and signed a three-year contract with an option for an additional year. RUSG, reigning Belgian Cup champions, secured his services amidst interest from Swansea City, FC Utrecht, Stade Rennais, and Como.

A product of the Right to Dream Academy, Fuseini previously played for Austrian club Sturm Graz, where he contributed to their Austrian Cup triumph in 2022/23. Opting for RUSG’s promising environment, known for nurturing young talents, Fuseini joins a club with a track record of developing players like Simon Adingra and Denis Undav, who subsequently moved to Brighton and Hove Albion under the club’s majority shareholder, Tony Bloom.

RUSG, narrowly missing the Belgian league title last season, now aims to qualify for the Champions League, with qualifiers set to commence in the upcoming season.
