Dreams FC turned down a substantial offer from Egyptian giants Al Ahly for midfielder Abdul Aziz Issah, ultimately deciding to transfer the promising talent to Barcelona.

The decision came amid strong interest from several top clubs, including Al Ahly and Barcelona, who were both eager to secure Issah's services.

The talented midfielder gained significant attention for his standout performances with Dreams FC and the Ghana U20 team.

His impressive display in the CAF Confederation Cup, where he scored four goals and provided two assists, and his contribution in the Ghana Premier League with seven goals and ten assists in 17 matches, made him a sought-after prospect.

Additionally, Issah's contributions in the FA Cup, where he scored four goals in five games, further highlighted his abilities.

Despite Al Ahly's lucrative offer, Dreams FC opted for a move that would support Issah's long-term development.

Barcelona's interest led to a decision to transfer the Ghanaian U20 star to Barça Athletic, the club's B team, for the 2024-2025 season.

The deal includes an option to make the move permanent at the end of the loan period.

Dreams FC's choice underscores their commitment to Issah's growth and their confidence in his potential to excel at a major European club.

As Issah joins Barcelona's B team, fans and analysts will be watching closely to see how his talents translate to the next level of competition.
