Ghanaian forward Hafiz Wontah Konkoni has completed a move to Ethiopian Coffee SC, signing a two-year contract after parting ways with Tanzanian giants Young Africans SC.
Konkoni’s time at Yanga was plagued by injuries, limiting his appearances and overall impact on the team. Despite these challenges, he managed to score twice in five appearances—netting a goal on his debut in the Tanzanian league and another in the CAF Champions League.
The forward spent the previous season on loan at Libyan club Olympic Azzaweya but struggled to secure a permanent spot at Yanga due to his injury setbacks. Originally joining Yanga from Bechem United, Konkoni’s potential was hampered by these issues, preventing him from establishing himself as a regular starter.

Ethiopian Coffee SC hopes Konkoni’s arrival will strengthen their attacking lineup, providing a much-needed boost as they look to enhance their offensive capabilities for the ongoing season. This move marks a fresh start for Konkoni, who aims to rediscover his form and make a significant impact in Ethiopian football.
Hafiz Konkoni is the second Ghanaian to move to Ethiopian Coffee this transfer window, following the signing of former Asante Kotoko goalkeeper Danlad Ibrahim. Once a standout forward in the Ghana Premier League, Konkoni’s performances earned him a call-up to the Black Stars in the past, and he will be looking to regain that level of performance in his new club.
