Sturm Graz have signed Ghanaian midfielder Araphat Mohammed before the January transfer window officially opens, while Real Madrid have finalised a deal for Latif Issman and Kebba Badjie is considering offers from three European clubs.
The 21-year-old Mohammed joins from FC Nordsjælland in Denmark after impressing during a trial with the Austrian club in recent weeks. The move brings his time in Denmark to an end and marks the start of a new chapter in the Austrian Bundesliga.
Sturm Graz have not disclosed the length of the contract. Mohammed will spend the remainder of the 2026/27 season with Sturm Graz II as he continues his development and aims to establish himself in the first-team squad.
Real Madrid finalise Latif Issman deal
Real Madrid have completed the recruitment of Latif Issman, according to Marca, with the Ghanaian midfielder set to become the first scheduled summer 2027 signing for Castilla.
The transfer concludes a deal that had been followed for several months and was completed quickly despite competition from other clubs.
Issman, 20, currently plays for UD Logrones, where he has been a regular in Unai Mendia’s system since July 2025. He came through the academy at SD Logrones and has attracted attention at Real Madrid for his ability to provide stability in midfield.
He has played 619 league minutes this season across 10 appearances, starting eight of those matches, and has registered one assist.
For now, Issman remains focused on helping UD Logrones pursue promotion to the second division before moving to the Spanish capital.
Three clubs compete for Kebba Badjie
Kebba Badjie is attracting interest from several European clubs as he weighs up the next step in his professional career.
The Gambian winger has recently received official offers from Konyaspor and Gornik Zabrze, according to Maghreb-Foot. The 27-year-old also has the option of moving to Austria to join LASK Linz.
Those possibilities will now be assessed by Badjie’s agent, Ersin Gultekin, who confirmed to Maghreb-Foot that a move to Europe is becoming increasingly likely in the near future.
