Tijani Joshua blames injuries for his struggles at Aduana Stars

Defender Tijani Joshua has blamed recurring injuries for his struggles since joining Aduana Stars.

The 29-year-old has established himself as one of the best left-backs in the domestic top-flights in the past decade featuring for Sekondi Hasaacas and Wa All Stars (Legon Cities).

He served as captain for Ashantigold before joining Aduana Stars in 2019.

Ahead of the start of the 2021/22 season, the Dormaa based club has decided to cut loose on the experienced defender together with seven other players.

Speaking in an interview, Tijani Joshua confirmed he has severed ties with the ‘Ogya lads’ and has therefore blamed injuries to his struggles at the club.

According to him, he requested for contract termination despite the club wanting him to stay.

“Since I joined the team have been always struggled with injuries so the team approached me and I told them I want to terminate my contact”

“They asked me about contract extension because my years with them will end in January but I decided not to stay, I’m even preparing to leave Aduana in the coming days” he told West FM.
