The 35-year-old signed a six-month contract with the club on Sunday to help them rise to the top tiers of the leagues in Holland, Ghana's leading football new outfit can confirm.

Amoah's contract with the ambitious side will end in June which could pave the way for him for bigger offers.

The attacker played for Ghana between 2002 and 2010 and earned 43 Black Stars.
