IF Elfsborg has officially welcomed young Ghanaian defender Rufai Mohammed into its ranks on a contract that will see him remain with the Swedish side until the 2028 season, Ghana Soccernet reports.
Mohammed, a promising center-back, arrives from Ghanaian club Inter Allies FC, eager to make his mark in European football. His previous experience with Elfsborg’s U19 and U21 teams in the spring of 2023 left a lasting impression, fueling his desire to return and establish himself as a key player for the club.
The transition to Elfsborg is made even more special for Mohammed as he reunites with Jalal Abdullai, a childhood friend and fellow Ghanaian, with whom he shares a long history, including their time together at the Inter Allies’ academy..
Mohammed’s leadership qualities and defensive prowess were on full display as he captained Ghana’s national youth team to a third-place finish at the WAFU tournament. Standing tall with his strength and defensive resolve, Mohammed is determined to integrate into Elfsborg’s first team, bringing his talent and positive energy to the fore.
