Egyptian side Ismaili have completed the signing of Ghanaian midfielder Prince Arko from Kumasi-based King Faisal after snubbing Kotoko’s Alex Asamoah.
The Dervishes have signed the offensive midfielder in a deal worth US$500,000.
Arko, who has been the key player for King Faisal this term, signed a four-and-a-half year contract.
The deal leaves him at the Egyptian club until 2015.
Arkoh is the third foreigner in the squad, alongside Nigerian Godwin Ndubuisi and his recently-signed compatriot John Owoeri.
The proposed deal for Asante Kotoko striker Alex Asamoah did not to materialize after the player failed to impress the coach during his seven-day stay at the club.
Ismaili were seeking a striker to back up Ahmed Ali, who joined Saudi champions Hilal on loan this week.
