Ghanaian midfielder Richard Boadu has completed a six-month loan move to Libyan side Al Tahadi FC after Club Africain, his parent club in Tunisia, was unable to register him due to foreign quota restrictions. The move provides Boadu with an opportunity to gain playing time and continue his development in North African football.
Boadu, who was set to join Club Africain last year, would have been a key figure in the team’s midfield with his technical ability and tactical awareness. However, due to Tunisia’s strict regulations on the number of foreign players allowed in a squad, Club Africain was unable to include him in their roster for the current season.
The loan deal to Al Tahadi FC, a club competing in the Libyan Premier League, ensures that Boadu will remain active and competitive during the six-month period. After the loan spell, the 26-year-old is expected to return to Club Africain, where he remains an integral part of their plans.
This loan move highlights the challenges faced by foreign players in North African leagues, where quota systems often limit opportunities for non-local talents. Despite this, Boadu’s temporary switch to Libya is seen as a positive step for both the player and Club Africain, as it allows him to maintain match fitness and form.
Al Tahadi FC, based in Benghazi, will benefit from Boadu’s experience and versatility in midfield as they aim to climb the Libyan Premier League table. The club has been active in the transfer market, bringing in players to strengthen their squad for the second half of the season.
Fans of Club Africain and Ghanaian football enthusiasts will be keeping a close eye on Boadu’s progress in Libya, hoping he returns to Tunisia ready to contribute to his team’s success.
