Former Asante Kotoko goalkeeper Danlad Ibrahim linked with move to Malaysia
Ghanaian goalkeeper Danlad Ibrahim is reportedly on the verge of joining a club in Malaysia.
The former Asante Kotoko shot-stopper ended his eight-year stint with the Porcupine Warriors following the expiration of his contract last month.
Ibrahim has represented Ghana at various youth levels, including the U-17, U-20, and U-23 teams, as well as the senior national team, the Black Stars.
Danlad, who was part of Ghana’s team at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, is among the over 20 players who have departed the club. He struggled to maintain his position as the first-choice goalkeeper for Asante Kotoko over the past two seasons, eventually losing the slot to Frederick Asare.
According to reports, the 21-year-old goalkeeper is expected to sign for an unnamed Malaysian club during the ongoing transfer window.
Ibrahim has won several laurels including the Ghana Premier League in the 2021-22 season, the Africa U-20 Cup of Nations in 2021, and the WAFU Zone B U-20 Tournament in 2020. Individually, he has been honored with the Golden Glove at both the WAFU Zone B U-20 Tournament in 2020 and the Africa U-20 Cup of Nations in 2021, as well as the Ghana Football Awards Goalkeeper of the Year in 2021.
