Vorsah arrives in Austria to complete Salzburg move
Posted On Friday, 31st August 2012
Isaac Vorsah will sign a four-year contract with Salzburg if he passes the medical
Ghana defender Isaac Vorsah has arrived in Austria to complete a move to giants Red Bull Salzburg on Friday, GHANAsoccernet.com can exclusively reveal.
Red Bull Salzburg have beaten competition from three other clubs and have agreed to pay US$6m for the Ghanaian defender.
The 24-year-old will undergo a medical later in the day before completing the big-money move from German side Hoffenheim.
“If successful in the medical, he (Vorsah) will be sold,” Hoffenheim coach Markus Babbel said.
Newly-promoted English Reading and Hamburg were among the clubs interested in the centre-back but Salzburg had the biggest offer on the table.
The defender will see his wages triple from what he received at the German Bundesliga club which seems to have swayed him to leave.
The move will end his four-year stay with Hoffenheim.
Salzburg sporting director Ralf Rangnick has been a major supporter of Vorsah and was the coach of the Ghanaian at Hoffenheim.
Vorsah played 110 matches for Hoffenheim and scored four goals.
The 6ft 5in Ghanaian, 24, can also play defensive midfield where he excelled in some matches for Hoffenheim.

Another wrong move why from germany to austria?
a player must only consider a move like this if he is about to retire. come on Vorsah!
I disagree with those of u who think is a wrong move. We don’t know the details of the contract so pls leave him alone. Do you think Vorsah will intentionally harm himself?. He knows where he can improve upon his performance. And those of you saying he’s about to retire pls don’t dare Vorsah. this is how u started with Appiah, J. Mensah,Pantsil, Essien and the likes and now u want to tag it on Vorsah. Are u the one who gave birth to him?. No wonder some of u are still marking time in life.
