Multiple award-winning Ghanaian singer, King Promise, joined forces with English giants Chelsea to deliver a new club anthem. 

The song titled Can't Tame Us was released with a special video, which covered a tournament the club was involved in, with King Promise displaying his love for the Blues. According to the Blues, the song is a love letter from one of their staunch supporters.

King Promise, known in real life as Gregory Newman Bortey, has been a huge Chelsea fan since his youth days and travels frequently to watch his favourite club.

"King Promise came to us with the idea for the track and, knowing how much Chelsea means to him, it felt like a really natural collaboration," said Scott Fenton, brand director at Chelsea Football Club.

"This is about celebrating our fans in Africa and the culture around the club, and showing what Chelsea can mean beyond the 90 minutes. Music is such a powerful way to bring people together, and this is a brilliant example of that."

King Promise also disclosed his excitement with the collaboration and feeling a part of the two-time European champions.

"It's the continuation of a lifelong relationship with the club, one that runs through his childhood in Nungua and idols like Michael Essien. That part of the story gets its own telling elsewhere; here, it shows up simply as a musician wearing the shirt he's loved since he was a boy, on the day it mattered most," said King Promise.

The song, Can't Tame Us, has already made it's debut at a matchday and will featured prominently throughout the campaign during home games.

A song for the Blues across the continent. A celebration of African culture. @IamKingPromise and Chelsea FC come together to create Can’t Tame Us. 🎶

Berekum Chelsea coach Kwaku Danso says his side are determined to change their poor record against Basake Holy Stars when the two teams meet in the Ghana Premier League on Sunday.

Chelsea have historically struggled when visiting Basake Holy Stars, but Danso is confident his team can end that trend as they look to secure valuable points at the AAK II Sports Arena.

"That's our plan. We want to change the narrative because when I took over, they told me that whenever they go there, they find it very difficult to even get a draw. So this year, we are trying to change the narrative. As I said, we are going for a point or the points," he told Berekum Chelsea media.

Berekum Chelsea enter the game after drawing 1-1 with Vision in their Matchweek 4 encounter. Seidu Abubakar put Chelsea ahead in the 58th minute before Ruben Quaye equalised for Vision.

The result leaves Berekum Chelsea 15th on the league table with four points from four matches.

Danso's side will face Basake Holy Stars on Sunday at the AAK II Sports Arena, with kick-off scheduled for 3:00 pm.

The four-time African champions, who missed the 2025 edition in Morocco, missed their opening two matches in the 2027 qualifiers to Ivory Coast and the Gambia.

Ghana lost 2-0 to Ivory Coast in Bouake before losing at home to the Gambia 4-2, and are now rooted bottom of Group C.

"Not the international break we hoped for. We failed to get the results we wanted, but the journey isn’t over yet.  We will learn, regroup, and come back stronger. The fight continues, and we will give everything we have to put our nation back where it belongs. Together, we keep fighting," posted the Fenerbahce defender on social media.

The defeats led to the sacking of coach Carlos Queiroz, with the Football Association in the market for a new gaffer.

Meanwhile, a friendly with Morocco has been cancelled as part of changes following the defeat to the Gambia on Tuesday.

Oppong Peprah and his teammates have left Ghana to join their respective teams ahead of the return of club football.

Berekum Chelsea head coach Kwaku Danso says his side will adopt an attacking approach when they face Basake Holy Stars FC in the Ghana Premier League on Sunday.

The Blues head into the encounter after playing out a 1-1 draw with Vision in their match week four fixture. Seidu Abubakar put Berekum Chelsea ahead in the 58th minute before Ruben Quaye restored parity for Vision.

Despite their modest start to the campaign, Danso insists his team will not sit back against Basake Holy Stars, promising an open approach at the AAK II Sports Arena.

"The approach is to play our normal game. We are going to open up. We are not going to defend. And we consider every match as we are playing home. We don't have any away and then we don't have any home. So we are playing as if we are playing home," he told Berekum Chelsea media.

Berekum Chelsea currently sit 15th on the league table with four points from four matches.

They will face Basake Holy Stars on Sunday at 3pm at the AAK II Sports Arena.

Ghanaian defender Daniel Asiedu has sealed a move to Norwegian side Ranheim Fotball. 

The 21-year-old signed a short-term deal to join the second tier outfit after leaving Swiss giants FC Basel.

The Norwegians have the option to extend his contract at the end of the season.

"We have been looking for some very specific qualities. We wanted physical robustness, someone who loves to defend his own box, and preferably a left-footed centre-back. Daniel hits the nail on the head on that profile," said the club's Sports Director Kare Ingebrigtsen.

Asiedu has been training with Ranheim since August after his contract ended with Basel.

During his time in Switzerland, he featured prominently for the youth team and spent some time also training with the senior side.

"Daniel is a real powerhouse at almost two meters, and we see great untapped potential in him. The fact that he has been here for a long time has given us the opportunity to evaluate him closely in everyday life. His characteristics suit us perfectly," added Ingebrigtsen.

"We have signed a contract until the end of the year, with an option to extend if the autumn meets expectations. Now Daniel will have the opportunity to show himself in a match situation, and we look forward to following his development closely."

He is expected to make his debut for Ranheim against Egersund on Friday.

Berekum Chelsea coach Kwaku Danso is confident his side can return from their Matchweek 5 clash against Basake Holy Stars with a positive result.

The Blues have endured a difficult start to the Ghana Premier League campaign, picking up four points from their opening four matches and currently sitting 15th on the league table.

Berekum Chelsea were held to a 1-1 draw by Vision in their previous outing. Seidu Abubakar put Chelsea ahead in the 58th minute, but Ruben Quaye later equalised for Vision to deny Danso’s side all three points.

Ahead of Sunday’s trip to the AAK II Sports Arena, Danso says his players have been working hard in preparation for the encounter.

"As you can see from the field, we are preparing fervently for that. And we believe that we are going to have a good result. So we are on it. And God willing, we will be setting off Saturday to Basake. And as I said, we will bring a good result home," he told Berekum Chelsea media.

Berekum Chelsea will face Basake Holy Stars on Sunday at 3pm, aiming to improve their league position with a strong performance.

Ghanaian youngster Nana-Kofi Donkor has been cleared to face IF Brommapojkarna in the Swedish league after receiving his work permit.

Donkor joined AIK Stockholm in August but had to wait for all paper work to complete before making his debut for the club.

AIK confirmed the Ghanaian winger will be in the squad for the game at home after training with the rest of the team.

"Nana-Kofi Donkor, finally in place at Karlberg," posted the club with a video of his arrival.

🇬🇭 Nana-Kofi Donkor, äntligen på plats på Karlberg. pic.twitter.com/af7fECPU3j

— AIK Fotboll (@AIKfotboll) September 29, 2026

The left-winger joined AIK from Georgian giants FC Dila Gori, having spent time on loan at Dinamo Tbilisi.

"Donkor is a skilled winger who is strong in one-on-one situations and can play both on the wing and in more central offensive roles. Despite his young age, his ability to drive the game through dribbling, passing and combination play convinced us that he is a player with great potential for AIK," Head of Recruitment at AIK, Miika Takkula said after signing the Ghanaian forward.

Donkor has enjoyed a rapid rise since moving to Georgia in 2025. After signing for FC Dila Gori, he was immediately loaned to Dinamo Tbilisi, where he made an instant impression.

The Ghanaian announced himself in style by scoring on his first-team debut against Torpedo Kutaisi in November 2025, netting a dramatic late equaliser after coming off the bench. He went on to make 13 senior league appearances for Dinamo Tbilisi, contributing three goals and one assist before his loan spell ended.

He also featured in the UEFA Youth League during his time with Dinamo Tbilisi, gaining valuable European experience against clubs including HŠK Zrinjski Mostar, AEK Larnaca and Dinamo Minsk.

Returning to Dila Gori ahead of the 2026 campaign, Donkor featured in the Georgian Super Cup, the UEFA Conference League qualifiers and the David Kipiani Cup. He played against Italian side Virtus Verona and Cypriot outfit Apollon Limassol in Europe before attracting interest from AIK.

Ghanaian forward Kwame Sosu junior has signed a new contract at Spanish outfit Real Betis Balompie. 

The 20-year-old extended his stay at the La Liga side after impressing at the reserve side, Real Betis Cantera.

His original deal was expected to expire in 2028, but the former Accra Desideros player will now stay till the summer of 2029.

"At Betis, I've grown a lot and I want to keep improving," he said.

Despite his new contract, Sosu Jnr will continue his career with Real Betis Cantera while he fight for a place in the first team.

Last season, he made 17 appearances, scoring two goals for Real Betis Cantera in Group 2 of the Primera Federacion.

Meanwhile, this season, the Ghanaian winger has already played four times for his side in the Segunda Federacion Group IV.

Before moving to Spain, Sosu Jr was adjudged best player during the Division Two middle league in 2024.

Head Coach Adi Hütter will deploy the talented midfielder as a No.10 to partner Mario Götze.

The former Accra Lions captain is reported to have made a lasting impression in Thursday’s first-team training session.

The 18-year-old, one of seven U21 players invited to train with the senior team during the international break, was consistently available as a passing option in the attacking position during various exercises and scored goal after goal.

His first goal was particularly impressive, coming from a beautiful overhead/scissor kick straight into the top corner.

Setordjie gave everything in the session, so much so that he was left on the ground after a challenge at one point, visibly in pain.

Following brief treatment on his ankle and some encouraging words from coach Hütter, he returned to the training session.

Bibiani Gold Stars goalkeeper Emmanuel Kobi says the team is determined to bounce back from their difficult start to the Ghana Premier League season when they face Vision FC on Saturday.

Gold Stars have endured a challenging opening four matches, with their latest setback coming in a 2-0 defeat to Port City at Duns Park in Bibiani. Defender Michael Abina was also sent off during the encounter.

Despite the disappointing result, Kobi insists the players remain motivated and are working hard ahead of their next fixture.

"I think if you look at our season, we are yet to have a good start, and if you look at our defeat against Port City, it is very painful, but we have not given up. We are preparing very hard from yesterday to today the training we are doing if you look at the intensity, everybody is ready and willing to give their best against Vision," he told Bibiani Gold Stars media.

Gold Stars currently sit 16th on the league table with three points from four matches.

They will take on Vision FC at the Nii Adjei Kraku Sports Complex on Saturday, with kick-off scheduled for 3pm.

Karela United head coach Nurudeen Amadu says his side did enough to avoid defeat despite their 1-0 loss to Asante Kotoko in the Ghana Premier League on Thursday.

In the close contest between the two teams, Karela United conceded an early goal from Isaac Agyemang at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium and failed to respond, despite creating several goal-scoring opportunities.

Speaking in a post-match interview, Nurudeen Amadu expressed his disappointment with his side's failure to convert their chances but praised the players for their overall performance.

The Karela United coach believes his team deserved at least a point from the encounter after improving in the second half.

“We played well, but we conceded an early goal. Even with that, we came back stronger. It is just that we wasted so many chances. But we played well. In the second half we were strong. Our worst result should have been a draw, but this is football. Sometimes you don’t get what you want. I will still commend my boys and encourage them to keep working hard.”

The defeat leaves Karela United in ninth position in the Ghana Premier League standings, with Kotoko climbing to third place.
