Ghanaian midfielder Elisha Owusu has officially completed a transfer to AJ Auxerre.
The 25 year old old put pen to paper on a two and a half year deal on Monday.
Owusu leaves Gent for the Ligue 1 side who are currently 19th in the table.
He returns to France, having left in 2019 to join Gent from Lyon.
“A new international joins the ranks of Auxerre! AJA is pleased to announce the signing of Elisha Owusu for two and a half years. The defensive midfielder, who will wear number 42, arrives from La Gantoise (Belgium), the club in which he has been playing since 2019.
“Born in Montreuil and trained at Olympique Lyonnais, Owusu then wore the colors of FC Sochaux-Montbéliard in 2018-2019, before joining La Gantoise, where he established himself as one of the best recoverers in the Jupiler League and with whom he played more than thirty European matches. Thanks to his excellent performances, he was retained in Ghana’s list for the last World Cup in Qatar, like Gideon Mensah, his now new club teammate.
“WELCOME TO AUXERRE ELISHA,” an official club statement from AJ Auxerre said.
