Gershon Koffie joins Hammarby in Sweden

Ghanaian midfielder Gershon Koffie has completed a switch to Swedish topflight side Hammarby IF on a three year deal, after passing medical.

Koffie who has spent most of his playing career in the Major League Soccer was a key member of Vancouver Whitecaps since his arrival in 2010 from Ghanaian side Inter Allies FC.

Last season, Koffie was an integral member of the New England Revolution after he was traded by the Whitecaps before the start of the 2016 MLS season.

Koffie will now join compatriot and his former teammate at Inter Allies FC Joseph Aidoo, who has grown into the Hammarby starting XI and making waves in the Swedish Allsvenskan.
