Hapoel Kfar Saba sign former Hearts of Oak defender Konadu Yiadom ahead of 2025/26 season

Israeli Division One side Hapoel Kfar Saba have secured the services of Ghanaian defender Konadu Yiadom ahead of the upcoming football season.

The 24-year-old joins the club as a free agent following the expiration of his contract with Ghanaian giants Hearts of Oak at the end of the 2024/25 campaign.

Despite discussions over a possible contract extension, Yiadom declined to renew his stay with the Phobians, opting instead for a fresh start abroad.

The former WAFA centre-back featured in 18 Ghana Premier League matches for Hearts of Oak, contributing a single assist during his stint.

Yiadom spent part of last season on loan at Ukrainian outfit Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih, but limited playing opportunities saw him return to Hearts ahead of the new season.

Hapoel Kfar Saba, who ended last season seventh in the Israeli Leumit League, are aiming for a stronger push this time around, with Yiadom expected to be a key figure in their bid for promotion to the top flight.
