From the moment I arrived at this club as a boy, to now, leaving as a man, this club has been my home, my sanctuary, and my family. I want to express my deepest gratitude to the Directors, Coaches and Staff both past and present for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to embark on this incredible journey. Your support and guidance have been instrumental in my growth, both as a player and as a person.

The connection we've formed will last a lifetime, and I am forever grateful for the moments we've shared. Genk will always hold a special place in my heart. The memories, the victories, the defeats, and the lessons learnt have shaped me into the person I am today. I will always carry the spirit of Genk with me. Thank You,” Joseph Paintsil said in his letter.
