Sync Sports UK sign Abagna to launch Ghana operations

UK-based Sync Sports Group (SSG), headed by Ghanaian Jason Kwasi Siaw, has signed in-form Wa All Stars midfielder, David Abagna, as their first Ghana-based client.

A group of registered FA intermediaries, sport consultants and highly skilled recruitment personnel, SSG started full operations in the UK back in July last year and boasts 15 footballers and boxers, including Saido Berahino of Stoke City, Ravel Morrison of Lazio, Bassala Sambou of Everton, Mathias Pogba (Sparta Rotterdam), Taylor Richards of Manchester City, as well as boxing sensation of Ghanaian descent, Junior Benjamin Saba, who makes his professional debut in Las Vegas on September 26.

Now the group has turned to Ghanaian talents with the acquisition of Abagna after monitoring the youngster closely for over three years.

"The reality is that we have a pool of untapped talents in Ghana and for whatever reason we never see these players exposed to the big stage.

“At Sync Sports, our plan is to build those athletes we feel are suitable for the top end of the market and create them into the stars they are destined to be and David is just a perfect example," said Mr Siaw, co-founder and CEO of SSG.

Having signed the All Stars player, SSG insists it is just the beginning of bigger things to come for Ghanaian athletes in every sport.

"David is a top midfielder in our eyes, one that suits our module. He has a bit of [N’Golo] Kante in him but drives forward more and has eight goals to his name already in the Ghana Premier League this season, from defensive midfield, which is the rare of a player in that position," he added.
