FC Samartex has secured goalkeeper Kofi Baah's services for another year, extending his contract following his standout performance in the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League season.

Baah, who achieved 14 clean sheets in 28 matches, played a pivotal role in FC Samartex's successful campaign, which culminated in their first-ever Premier League title under head coach Nurudeen Amadu.

Expressing his delight, Baah stated, "I am pleased to continue my journey with FC Samartex 1996 until 2026. Positive discussions with the management reassured me that this club is where I can develop my career and contribute to the team's ambitions."

Meanwhile, FC Samartex is gearing up for their inaugural appearance in the CAF Champions League. The team is set to face Cameroon's Victoria United FC in the preliminary round.

The Timber Giants will play the first-leg match in Limbe, Cameroon, before hosting the return fixture at the Accra Sports Stadium.

The preliminary round, scheduled for August, promises an exciting start for Samartex, with the winner advancing to meet either ASGNN of Niger or Morocco's Raja Club Athletic in September's second round.

Samartex aims to make a mark in their debut Champions League campaign and views the upcoming matches as an opportunity to showcase their prowess on the continental stage.
