Sporting Director Peter Verbeke explains why they were convinced in handing the Ghanaian a deal.

"Despite a difficult integration due to COVID-19 and an injury, Majeed has shown in his best moments what he can teach us. He has an excellent vista and passing, coupled with speed and infiltration ability, interesting qualities to give our midfield a little extra bring the following seasons," he told the club's official website.

The former WAFA player featured 12 times, scoring twice before the 2020/21 season came to an end.

He has been given the number 18 jersey.

In other news, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that Dutch-born Ghanaian defender, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, who is currently in the country for holidays has named the Ghanaian musicians he feels are good.

The Bayer Leverkusen man, in an exclusive interview in Ghana, indicated that he listens to a lot of Ghanaian music wherever he finds himself.

Asked to mention off the top of his head Ghanaian singers he had some form of affinity to, the ex-Manchester United star mentioned that he listens to songs made by Castro a lot.

To add to his list, Timothy Fosu Mensah indicated that musicians like Sarkodie, King Promise, and Bisa Kdei were very good.

Speaking about King Promise, Fosu-Mensah revealed that he met the CCTV crooner some years ago at a festival he attended in Amsterdam.
