Accra Lions duo join Malaysian side Selangor FC

Ghanaian second-tier side Accra Lions duo have joined Malaysian giants Selangor FC on loan.

The two players, George Attram and Jordan Ayimbila completed the switch to the Yellow and Gold lads on a season-long loan on Monday.

It’s the first time a player from the club is heading to Asia, but Accra Lions manager Ishmael Hamid insisted it’s part of their strategy to announce themselves to the global market.

“The cooperation with Selangor is part of our strategy to develop Accra Lions into a globally recognized brand. Football in Asia is a fast growing industry. It’s a good moment to leave our footprint there.”
