Ghanaian midfielder Emmanuel Danso agrees deal to join Scottish club Livingston

Ghanaian midfielder Emmanuel Danso is set to join Scottish Premiership side Livingston FC in the winter transfer window. 

The 25-year-old, who has been described by Tottenham Hotspur star Mohammed Kudus as one of the best players he knows, has agreed a deal to join the West Lothian outfit.

Danso will be officially announced the club's newest arrival in January after his contract with Norwegian side Stabaek expires at the end of the year.

The former Sporting Club Accra player gained attention after his best friend Kudus mentioned him in a viral interview during his time at West Ham.

Several clubs started to circle around him for his services but Livingston made a concrete offer, enough to convince the player to sign for the club.

Danso started his career at SC Accra before spending time on loan in France with Olympique Lyonnais.

He then moved to Norway, where he first signed for Stromsgodset before joining Stabaek.

This year, he has made 24 appearances in the Norwegian Eliteserien for Stabaek.
