Club career

Ghana

Hans Kwofie - Medeama SC

Born and raised in Tarkwa, Ghana, Hans began his professional footballing career in 2003 with Nsoatre-based, Ghana Division Two League club, Nsoatre Manchester United F.C. In 2005, he moved to Nkawkaw where he signed a one-year contract with Ghana Division One League club, King Solomon F.C. In 2006, he moved to Kasoa where he signed a one-year contract with another Ghana Division One League club, Tuba Metro Stars F.C. In 2007, he moved to Kpandu where he signed a two-year contract with Ghana Premier League and one of Ghana's most renown clubs, Heart of Lions F.C.

In 2009, he moved back to his hometown, Tarkwa where he signed a long-term contract with another Ghana Premier League club, Medeama SC.[2] He helped his side secure the 4th position in the 2010–11 Ghanaian Premier League and also finished as the club top scorer in the 2010-11 season. During the 2015 Ghanaian Premier League, news speculated that hard-tackling midfielder was alleged to have been linked with a possible move to one of the two most glamorous clubs in the country, Asante Kotoko SC and Accra Hearts of Oak SC following reports indicating a bid had been made to Medeama seeking for the player’s services. But the Tarkwa-born midfielder denied all the rumors hinting that he had not been approached by either side.[3] Also during the 2015-16 season, Hans threatened to summon the Ghana Premier League club before the Ghana Football Association if the club failed to pay his signing fee.[4][5]

Oman

After failing to extend his contract with Ghana Premier League club, Medeama SC for the fifth consecutive season[6] he decided to make his first move out of Ghana in 2015 to the Middle East and more accurately to Oman where on 9 September 2015, he signed a one-year contract with Sur-based, Oman Professional League club, Al-Oruba SC.[7][8][9][10] He made his Oman Professional League debut on 13 September 2015 in a 3-1 win over newly promoted side, Salalah SC[11] and scored his first goal on 18 October 2015 in a 3-1 win over another Salalah-based club, Al-Nasr S.C.S.C..[12][13]
