Ghana goalkeeper Adam Kwarasey leaves Norwegian club in December

Ghana goalkeeper, Adam Larsen Kwarasey is set to leave Norwegian side Valerenga Football at the end of the year after the club decided against extending his contract.

Sporting Director of Vålerenga, Jørgen Ingebrigtsen confirmed the departure of Kwarasey.

“There is no drama behind this. We have chosen a strategy to focus on young local players, and have Kristoffer and Kjetil in the same position as Adam. These are the ones we have chosen to focus on in the future, and then this is a natural decision,” Jørgen Ingebrigtsen said.

Kwarasey, 32, was earlier said to be nearing his exit at Vålerenga after falling the perking order.

Kwarasey has kept the post only 18 times of 30 matches in the 2019 season after the technical staff decided not to make him an automatic first choice.

He capped 27 times by Ghana, rejoined Valerenga in 2017 from Danish Superliga side Brøndby.

He has also had stints with Stromsgodset, Portland Timbers in the MLS and Rosenborg BK.

Kwarasey has six months left on his contract with the Eliteserien which will run out in December 2020.
