Ghanaian attacker Kwaku Karikari joins AC Horsens on a long-term deal

Ghanaian forward Kwaku Karikari has officially signed with Danish club AC Horsens, committing to a contract that runs until June 2028.

The 22-year-old moves from FK Jedinstvo Ub in Serbia, where he had an outstanding season, scoring 16 goals and providing 9 assists, playing a crucial role in the team's promotion to the Serbian Super Liga.

Karikari's impressive performance earned him the title of the club's best player for the 2023-24 campaign. Over his two seasons in Serbia, he scored a total of 29 goals and delivered 16 assists in 68 matches.

Karikari will join his new teammates for training on Monday and will be available for selection in Horsens' second league game of the season against Hillerod Fodfold on Friday.

This comes after Horsens' opening game defeat, where they lost 1-3 to FC Fredericia.

The talented attacker previously played for Liberty Professionals and Dreams FC in the Ghana Premier League before his move to Serbia.

His successful stint in Serbia has set the stage for a new challenge in Denmark, where he is expected to make a significant impact at Horsens.
