Ghanaian defender Samuel Inkoom has expressed delight over his move to Bulgaria after signing for local side FC Vereya.

The right-back is looking forward to his debut for Vereya on Sunday when they face giants Ludogorets in the Bulgarian top-flight.

This comes after Ghana's leading football news website GHANAsoccernet.com exclusively revealed the deal on Friday and he has expressed his gratitude.

“I am very happy to have signed for Vereya FC and I am very thankful to the manager and President who showed so much desire to bring me here,” the right-back wrote on Twitter.

He becomes the first Ghanaian player to have play for the club after completing his medical in Stara Zagora on Friday.

Inkoom has told GHANAsoccernet.com that he has agreed a four-month deal with the Bulgarian club who are currently 9th on the league table.
