According to Ghanasoccernet, the club finally made a u-turn on a decision to release the player last week.

He reportedly met with the club top hierarchy this week to agree on a new deal.

Chairman Togbe Afede and the club's Managing Director were among several leaders of the club who met the player to help him reduce his mammoth wage increase demands that caused the club to release the player. 

An agreement has now been reached over the terms for him to sign a two-year fresh contract and he is expected to sign on the dotted lines in the coming hours.
