Young Ghananian playmaker Kamaldeen Sulemana has become the most expensive teenage footballer from Ghana following his move to Stade Rennes.T
The19-year-old officially joined the Ligue 1 side on Friday, July 16, 2021, after completing his medical earlier in the day.
He has also overtaken Nigeria’s Mikel Obi, who once held the record as the most expensive teenager on the continent.
A teenage Mikel joined Premier League Chelsea from Lyn in June 2006 in a deal that was worth £16 million (€18.6 million).
However, Kamaldeen’s move to Rennes has seen him rise to become the second most expensive teenager on the continent.
As it stands, only Amad Diallo costs more than the Ghanaian, after the Ivorian completed a move from Atalanta to Manchester United for £37 million.
Kamaldeen put pen to paper on a five-year deal, which will see him stay at the French club until 2026.
However, Rennes moved in to hijack the move by spending €21 million to prise the player away from Nordsjaelland.
