Swope Park Rangers sign Ghanaian forward William Opoku Mensah

The Swope Park Rangers have added forward William Opoku Mensah to the squad ahead of the 2019 season, the club announced today. The signing is pending the receipt of Opoku's International Transfer Certificate (ITC), as well as pending league and federation approval.

Opoku, 23, joins the Rangers from Karela United in his native Ghana. In the 2018 Ghanaian Premier League campaign, Opoku served as captain and tallied seven goals in just 11 games, including a 19-minute hat trick against traditional Ghanaian powerhouse, Hearts of Oak, last April.

Opoku joined Karela United from his youth club, Sekondi Eleven Wise, in 2015.
