Opoku Agyemang has 7 goals from 38 Ghana Premier League appearances over two seasons with now-defunct AshantiGold.
He was among several players who were found culpable and banned in the match-fixing scandal that rocked Ghana football when the Miners beat Inter Allies 7-0 in a final fixture of the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League (GPL) on July 17, 2021.
Opoku Agyemang’s ban was however temporarily lifted in September last year by the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS).
