FC Nordsjaelland, of the Danish Super Liga, has unveiled the signing of Ghanaian prodigy Issaka 'Baba' Seidu on a long-term contract, marking a significant milestone in the young left-back's burgeoning career.
Hailing from the esteemed Right to Dream Academy in Ghana, the 18-year-old Seidu has captured the attention of FC Nordsjaelland's technical staff with his exceptional playing style and agility on the field.
Seidu joins a growing contingent of talents from the Right to Dream Academy who have made the transition to FC Nordsjaelland during the ongoing transfer window.
His arrival follows that of Araphat Mohammed, Caleb Yirenkyi, Levy Nene, and Stephen Acquah, highlighting the fruitful relationship between the academy and the Danish club.
In an official statement, FC Nordsjaelland confirmed the signing, emphasizing Seidu's potential impact on the squad: "18-year-old 'Baba' is an agile left-back who will bolster the Superliga squad in the upcoming season, as he officially commits to FC Nordsjælland. Consequently, he will join the team in Farum as they reconvene from holiday on June 24."
Seidu is poised to embark on a new chapter in his footballing journey with FC Nordsjaelland, commencing with the club's pre-season training for the 2024–25 campaign later this month.
Despite his young age, Seidu's talent and dedication have earned him this opportunity to showcase his skills on a broader stage, and his potential contributions are eagerly anticipated by both club and fans alike.
While Seidu has yet to represent Ghana at any level, his move to FC Nordsjaelland opens doors for further growth and development, paving the way for a promising future in professional football.
