Scottish Premiership side St Mirren are on the verge of completing the signing of a highly rated Ghanaian left winger Abdul Hakim Sulemana, with a deal agreed for the free agent following his recent departure from Randers FC.
The 1.64m attacker, who became available earlier this month, is scheduled to undergo his medical in the coming days before finalising the move to Paisley. The transfer represents a calculated step by St Mirren as they look to strengthen their attacking options ahead of the new campaign.
Despite limited opportunities in Denmark, the youngster made nine appearances in the Danish Superliga, showing flashes of his pace and direct style. Abdul Hakim Sulemana stock, however, rose significantly on the international stage, where he delivered standout performances for Ghana’s U20 side at the CAF U20 Africa Cup of Nations, including a Man of the Match display that caught the attention of scouts across Europe.
Excitement among supporters has been amplified not only by his potential but also by his footballing lineage. Abdul Hakim Sulemana is the younger brother of Kamaldeen Sulemana, the Black Stars winger known for his explosive pace and flair at the highest level. The connection has sparked optimism that similar qualities could soon be on display in the Scottish Premiership.
For St Mirren, the move signals clear intent. After finishing in mid-table last season, the club is eager to push higher up the standings, and the addition of a dynamic wide player is seen as a key part of that ambition.
If the medical proceeds without complications, the deal is expected to be completed swiftly, handing St Mirren a promising young talent with both pedigree and the hunger to make his mark in European football.
