Enterprising Ghanaian forward Bernard Morrison is on the radar of APR ahead of the June transfer window

Ghanaian attacker Bernard Morrison is linked with a move to Rwandan champions APR FC, Times Sport has learnt.

Morrison’s contract at Morocco Botola League champions FAR Rabat expires on June 30, and he is likely to move to Rwanda.

The 31-year-old is not new to East and Central African football having previously had spells with Congolese side AS Vita Club as well as Simba and Yanga SC in Tanzania. He has also featured for Orlando Pirates in South Africa.

A close source to the player told Times Sport that APR FC have already expressed interest in the player as they hope to improve their squad for the 2024/2025 CAF Champions League campaign.

"An initial approach has been made and it is likely Morrison will end up at APR. He is not new to East African football and with his huge experience and expertise, he will help APR a lot especially in Africa," the source told Times Sport.

A nimble footed player with incredible pace, Morrison can operate on the wings and as a centre forward. He also has a good eye for goal and assist.

As talented as he is, Morrison has, however, often courted controversies in his career.

In February 2022, he was suspended by Simba SC for leaving the camp without permission.

Again, in 2021, after forcing a move to Simba SC from Yanga, he celebrated in front of the fans of his former club by removing his pants after scoring the lone goal as the Lions edged Yanga 1-0 in the Azam Sports Federation Cup final.
