Ghanaian international Nathaniel Adjei has said his final goodbye to Swedish outfit Hammarby IF after switching to Lorient in France.
The highly-rated defender has completed a permanent move to the French Ligue 2 outfit in the ongoing transfer window, ending his two-and-a-half years at Hammarby IF.
Adjei joined Lorient on loan from Hammarby IF during the January transfer window. The agreement included a mandatory purchase option.
His outstanding performance pushed Lorient to sign the Ghanaian defender on a permanent deal, making him the most expensive player in the history of the Swedish Allsvenskan.
In heartfelt message, the Ghanaian defender expressed gratitude to Hammarby for the opportunity given him to thrive in Sweden.
“Hey everyone. It has been nearly three years since my arrival at Hammarby.”
“My ambition has always been to help Hammarby grow and become even more amazing than it already is, and that has been my purpose since the day I signed.”
“I have had many wonderful experiences as well as some more challenging ones while I have been at this lovely club. I was always surrounded by amazing supporters at a fantastic club, both in good and bad times.”
“I will always cherish the fact that you supported me at my darkest moments.”
”It's a privilege to have been able to perform, had fun, and smile in a Stadium as special as Tele2Arena with all of our amazing supporters.”
“Additionally, I would like to thank all of my teammates, the staff, and everyone else who has always had such faith in me.”
“Today marks the conclusion of a period in our life that we will never forget. My fondness for Hammarby will be eternal.”
