African Confederation Cup campaigners New Edubiase are lining up a bid to sign veteran midfielder Stephen Oduro in an attempt to beef up their squad ahead of the Caf Confederation Cup and the Ghana Premier League.

The reigning MTN FA Cup champions are looking for an experienced midfielder as they head into their debut continental campaign in the coming season.

“Oduro is one of the players who is high on the agenda of New Edubiase and we will do everything possible to sign him,” Goal.com Ghana’s close source within the management revealed.

“In Africa you definitely need players like Oduro who has seen it all to propel you forward and we will surely acquire him,” it added.
