In a recent development, Chelsea Football Club is preparing to terminate the contract of Abdul Rahman Baba, the talented defender from the Black Stars of Ghana, in a mutual agreement. This news was brought to light by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano in a tweet on Monday.
According to Romano, Baba Rahman will soon be joining the Greek club PAOK as a free agent on a two-year deal. The Italian journalist shared, “It’s now over for Abdul Rahman Baba at Chelsea. Contract set to be terminated on mutual agreement and he’s joining Greek side PAOK.”
This move to PAOK will allow Baba Rahman to showcase his skills and contribute to the success of the Greek club. PAOK, in turn, will be acquiring the experienced left-full back on a two-year deal, extending until 2025. It’s worth mentioning that PAOK has also secured the signing of William Troost Ekong from Watford on a three-year deal.
Abdul Rahman Baba initially joined Chelsea in 2015 from Augsburg. However, during his time at the club, he only managed to make 15 appearances. As a result, the decision to terminate his contract in mutual agreement seems like the best move for both parties involved.
Over the years, Baba Rahman has gained valuable experience through loan spells. In 2021, he was loaned out to PAOK, where he made a significant impact. Subsequently, he spent the 2021/22 and 22/23 seasons on loan at Reading, further honing his skills and contributing to the team’s success.
The termination of Baba Rahman’s contract signifies a new chapter in his career. Joining PAOK as a free agent presents an exciting opportunity for the 29-year-old defender to prove his worth and make a lasting impression in Greek football.
As fans eagerly anticipate the official announcement of this transfer, it is clear that Baba Rahman’s journey as a professional footballer continues to evolve. His talent and dedication will undoubtedly contribute to PAOK’s pursuit of success in the upcoming seasons.
