Nations FC captain Razak Simpson is quickly emerging as one of the most sought-after defenders in African football, with Algerian champions CR Belouizdad now expressing strong interest in securing his services.
The 26-year-old centre-back has been a standout performer in the ongoing Ghana Premier League season, notching four goals in 18 appearances – a rare feat for a defender.
His commanding presence at the back, coupled with his leadership qualities, has not only bolstered Nations’ campaign but also earned him a well-deserved call-up to the Black Stars.
Simpson made his international debut in a crucial AFCON qualifier against Angola and has since added two more caps to his name, showcasing composure and tactical intelligence on the international stage.
Belouizdad’s pursuit signals Simpson’s rising stature on the continent. A move to the North African giants – who boast a rich history and regular participation in CAF competitions – would offer him a greater platform to showcase his talent and develop further.
While Nations are reluctant to lose their captain, they acknowledge the potential career growth such a transfer could offer.
Talks are expected to intensify in the coming weeks, with fans eagerly awaiting to see if one of Ghana’s finest defensive talents will soon take his next big step.
