The duo, both highly rated prospects, arrive with strong reputations from Ghana’s youth football scene.

Eighteen-year-old striker Emmanuel Agyemang is regarded as a dynamic forward with a keen eye for goal, while 19-year-old midfielder Latif Aziz brings creativity, composure and versatility in the middle of the park.

For Viimsi JK, the acquisition aligns with a broader strategy of investing in young, high-potential players capable of growing into key assets for the club.

The transfers also highlight the increasing pathway for African talents to break into European football through developmental leagues, with clubs in countries like Estonia providing stepping stones for players aiming to climb the professional ladder.

Both players are expected to integrate into the squad immediately as Viimsi JK continue their campaign in Estonia’s second tier, with hopes that their youthful energy and talent will inject fresh impetus into the team.
