Dubai City Football Club have officially completed all travel formalities for Ghanaian goalkeeper Fredrick Asare, paving the way for his departure to South Africa to begin pre-season preparations with the club.
The former Asante Kotoko shot-stopper is set to leave Accra on Monday, 1st July 2025, after receiving his flight ticket earlier this week. His move marks a significant step in his professional career, following a season of consistent performances in the Ghana Premier League.
Asare’s transfer was confirmed in early June, with Dubai City reportedly impressed by his agility, command of the area, and shot-stopping abilities. The club is currently in South Africa for a pre-season training camp and a series of friendly matches ahead of the 2025/26 UAE football season.
Sources close to the player say Asare is excited about the opportunity and is determined to make an impact at his new club. His move comes amid growing interest in Ghanaian players from Middle Eastern and North African clubs, signalling a renewed confidence in talent emerging from the West African nation.
Fredrick Asare joined Asante Kotoko in 2022 and quickly established himself as one of the most reliable goalkeepers in the league. His commanding presence in goal earned him praise from both fans and pundits alike, and he was instrumental in Kotoko’s league campaign last season.
Dubai City are hoping his addition will strengthen their goalkeeping department as they aim to improve their domestic league performance and push for continental qualification.
Asare is expected to join up with his new teammates in Johannesburg, where Dubai City are currently based for the next phase of their training programme.
