Berekum Chelsea announce signing of Kotoko forward Stephen Amankona

Published on: 30 January 2023

Ghana Premier League side Berekum Chelsea have announced the signing of Stephen Amankona from Asante Kotoko.

Amankona joins the side on a permanent deal to make a return to the Berekum-based club.

The winger has failed to live up to expectation since joining the Porcupine Warriors two seasons ago.

The 22-year-old struggled for game time under Seydou Zerbo, making only five appearances in the ongoing campaign.

Amankona failed to cut the club’s starting line-up in the previous season under Prosper Narteh Ogum despite showing glimpses of his best during the early stages of his career in the Premier League.

Amankona joined the Porcupine Warriors in October 2021 from Berekum Chelsea.

He was instrumental for the Bibires in the Ghanaian top-flight in the 2020/21 season where he netted 10 goals in 28 matches.

Amankona also helped the club to reach the semi-final of the MTN FA Cup.

He was the 12th signing of the Porcupine Warriors who were keen on clinching the Ghana Premier League from bitterest rivals Hearts of Oak.
