Legon Cities FC sign Matthew Anim-Cudjoe on transfer deadline day

 The budding talented forward has officially joined the Royals until the end of the season.

Ghana Premier League side Legon Cities FC have completed the signing of Matthew Anim-Cudjoe from Division One League side Young Apostles on the transfer deadline day.

Officials of Legon Cities FC reached an agreement with Young Apostles FC over his acquisition after his loan spell at Asante Kotoko expired months ago.

Anim Cudjoe joined Asante Kotoko on a six-month loan deal from the Division One League side during the last transfer window but the Porcupine Warriors failed to sign him on permanent basis.

The 16-year-old rose to become one of the most exciting players in the truncated 2019/20 Ghana Premier League season with dazzling display in the shirt of the Reds.

His mind-boggling performance attracted interest from several clubs in Europe including Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona.

He underwent a two-week trial at German Bundesliga club Bayern Munich in February.

Anim Cudjoe scored one goal in his six game outings for the Porcupine Warriors in the truncated 2019/20 Ghana Premier League season.

He was a member of the Black Satellites squad that represented Ghana U20 at the 2019 Africa Games held in Morocco.

Anim Cudjoe was scouted during the premier edition of the Baby Jet Invitational tournament in 2018 (organized by former Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan) where he emerged the best player and top scorer of the tournament.
