Kazakhstani club, FK Tobol Kostanay secured the services of Ghanaian forward Godberg Barry Cooper, GHANAsoccernet.com can confirm
Notably, the player had previously missed a transfer to Iranian side Foolad due to a coaching change, but now, the Italian footballer of Ghanaian origins successfully made his move to Kazakhstan.
Joining a team with aspirations in the country, Cooper's transfer marked a significant chapter.
Cooper joined Tobol Kostanay after the club reached an agreement with Romanian side UTA Arad for the permanent transfer of the 26-year-old striker.
In his 23 appearances wearing the red-white shirt in Romania, Cooper contributed with three goals and two assists.
It's plausible that Cooper departed UTA without a transfer fee, possibly relinquishing back wages.
The dynamics of his departure suggest a shift in his football journey, now embracing new opportunities in Kazakhstan.
Cooper made his debut last week when he came on as a substitute in the Kazakhstan Super Cup, where Tobol Kostanay triumphed on the most-match penalty shootouts.
The towering footballer immediately won his first silverware with his new club.
