Benjamin Afutu Kotey, a former midfielder for Hearts of Oak, has officially transferred to Saudi Arabian club Al-Taqadom FC.
The 26-year-old defensive midfielder has accepted a free transfer to the third-tier Saudi Arabian team.
He signed a one-year deal that was renewable.
Afutu left Eastern Company FC of the Egyptian Premier League in June after a mutual termination, and he has been free since.
The midfielder joined the Egyptian club from the Hearts in September 2021 after a successful campaign where he helped the Phobians win the Ghana League and FA Cup.
There were efforts from Hearts for a contract extension deal but he refused and subsequently headed to the North African country.
Afutu failed to command a starting place in the Egyptian club having managed only 8 appearances before his departure.
He will team up with a former colleague at Hearts, Bernard Arthur to ensure Al-Taqadom return to the Saudi second-tier at the end of the 2022-23 season.
