In a move that underscores his enduring influence in the football world, Ghanaian football icon Prince Tagoe is set to return to his former club, Al Ettifaq FC, in a scouting capacity.
The Saudi Pro League side has invited Tagoe to attend their highly anticipated home game against Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr on September 20th, marking a triumphant return to his old stomping grounds.
Tagoe's storied past with Al Ettifaq FC dates back to his two-season tenure, where he played a pivotal role in their 2009 AFC Champions League campaign, netting an impressive eight goals in six matches.
This remarkable performance earned him widespread recognition, culminating in 36 international appearances and seven goals for Ghana before his retirement in 2015.
In a strategic move, Al Ettifaq FC has engaged Tagoe in discussions regarding a potential collaboration, exploring the possibility of appointing him as a scout for talented young footballers in Africa.
Leveraging his vast experience in the sport, both locally and internationally, Tagoe will represent the club in this region, contributing to the growth of their youth academy.
This new role is a testament to Tagoe's expertise and experience, solidifying his status as one of Ghana's football greats. Notably, he was also appointed as a scout ambassador for a German-based football management firm just three weeks ago, representing them in Asia.
As Tagoe embarks on this new chapter, his expertise will be instrumental in shaping the next generation of football talent. His legacy continues to inspire, and his return to Al Ettifaq FC marks a full-circle moment in an illustrious career.
