Former Asante Kotoko CEO Nana Yaw Amponsah has assumed the role of president at FC Petrocub in Moldova, signifying a significant step in his football administrative career.
This appointment comes after the formalisation of a partnership agreement, succeeding Mikhail Usatîi in the position.
Petrocub, established in 1994 and nicknamed The White-Blacks or The Hincesti Lions, competes in the Moldovan Super Liga, playing home matches at the Municipal Stadium in Hincesti.
In the previous season, they achieved a commendable second place in the eight-club league, with Marius Iosipoi emerging as the third-highest goalscorer.
Notably, Nana Yaw Amponsah’s impact is already evident, as former Kotoko goalkeeper Razak Abalora made a move to Petrocub from Sheriff Tiraspol, indicating a strategic influence on player transfers.
At present, Petrocub holds the second position in the Moldovan league standings with 28 points, trailing six points behind league leader Sheriff.
Amponsah’s entry into the Moldovan football scene adds an intriguing chapter to his career, and his expertise is expected to shape the future trajectory of FC Petrocub.
