Ghanaian youngster Nana Kwame Boakye is set to complete a transfer to Norwegian top-flight side SK Brann from FC Sheriff Tiraspol in a deal worth around 1 million Euros, GHANAsoccernet.com understands.
The 19-year-old centre-back will sign a long-term contract with the Eliteserien outfit until December 2029 after impressing with his performances in Moldova.
Boakye was a key figure for Sheriff last season, making 34 appearances across all competitions as the club dominated domestically and competed in Europe. He earned a spot in the team of the season.
His composure, aerial strength and consistency at the back quickly established him as one of Sheriff’s most dependable players.
The Ghana U20 defender has already carried that form into the 2025-26 campaign, featuring six times in UEFA Europa League and Conference League qualifiers while also playing eight matches in the Moldovan league.
His rise has not gone unnoticed, with Brann moving swiftly to secure his services as they seek to bolster their defensive options.
The Norwegian club view Boakye as a player with significant potential who can develop further in a more competitive league.
Boakye’s move also adds to the growing list of Ghanaian youngsters making strides in Europe, and he will be hoping to use this opportunity as a springboard for future national team recognition.
