Samuel Obeng’s African Homecoming: A New Chapter with Wydad AC

After years of plying his trade in Europe, Ghanaian forward Samuel Obeng Gyabaa has embarked on a new journey, signing for Wydad Athletic Club in Morocco. For the first time in his career, the talented attacker will showcase his skills on African soil, eager to leave a mark on one of the continent’s football giants.

Obeng, who joined Wydad from Portuguese side Casa Pia, wasted no time in expressing his commitment to the club’s ambitions.

“Personally, I will give my best and collectively finish in a good position. In June, we will give our best in the World Cup for the fans and the club,” he said during his unveiling.

Having spent most of his career in Spain, featuring for clubs like Getafe, Girona, Real Oviedo, Granollers, and Calahorra, the 27-year-old forward is no stranger to top-level competition. His experience playing in North Africa at the 2019 CAF U23 Cup of Nations in Egypt, where he was Ghana’s standout performer with two goals, could prove vital in his adaptation to Moroccan football.

Under the guidance of South African coach Rulani Mokoena, Obeng is expected to play a crucial role in Wydad’s attack. With his hunger for success and proven talent, fans of the Casablanca-based club will be hoping he can fire them to glory in both domestic and continental competitions.

A new chapter begins, and all eyes will be on Obeng as he embraces this exciting challenge.
