Singida Black Stars FC, a prominent Tanzanian top-flight club, has finalized the signing of Ghanaian midfielder Emmanuel Keyekeh from FC Samartex on a three-year contract.

Keyekeh, aged 26, joined the team recently and swiftly made his debut in the CECAFA Kagame Cup match against Rwandan champions APR FC on Tuesday.

During the previous season, Keyekeh played a pivotal role in guiding FC Samartex to their maiden league title, showcasing his prowess with 5 goals and 2 assists in 32 appearances.

His outstanding performance earned him recognition as the best home-based footballer at the 2024 Ghana Football Awards held in Accra just two weeks ago.

The acquisition of Keyekeh represents a significant enhancement for Singida Black Stars ahead of the upcoming 2024-25 season.

Known for his experience and skills, Keyekeh has already demonstrated his quality in preseason action, setting high expectations among fans for his impact in the upcoming campaign.

Singida Black Stars FC is poised to contend for the Tanzanian Premier League title next season, with Keyekeh anticipated to play a pivotal role in their pursuit of success.

His move to Singida Black Stars FC follows in the footsteps of Dauda Yussif Seidu, who recently joined Rwandan side APR, marking a trend of Ghanaian players seeking new challenges in East Africa.

Emmanuel Keyekeh's arrival underscores Singida Black Stars FC's ambition to strengthen their squad and compete at the highest level of Tanzanian football.
