Samartex coach Nurudeen Amadu has praised the club’s Ghana Premier League title win as a "monumental achievement."
The team secured the title with a 1-0 victory over Bibiani Gold Stars on Sunday, igniting celebrations in Samreboi that lasted throughout the night.
Amadu shared that the initial goal for the season was to improve upon their previous campaign, which marked their debut in the top flight.
Last season, Samartex finished 10th with 46 points, narrowly avoiding relegation.
However, this season they exceeded all expectations by challenging for the title and ultimately securing it with two games to spare.
Following the match against Gold Stars, Amadu expressed his gratitude to the club's management for their unwavering support, noting that this was his first major trophy as a coach.
"Not many at Samartex, including the fans, knew who I was," Amadu revealed to Kumasi-based Akoma FM.
"The aim was to finish higher than last season, not to win the league. So, winning is a monumental achievement. It's a dream come true for me."
He extended special thanks to Ghana FA technical director Prof. Joseph Mintah, who recommended him to Samartex, and to the club’s General Manager Edmund Ackah for their immense faith in him.
Samartex are set to be crowned champions in their final home game of the season against Accra Lions, marking the pinnacle of an extraordinary season for the club.
