FC Samartex’s teenage sensation Emmanuel Mamah has become the talk of the Ghana Premier League after a blistering six-goal streak in as many matches.
The 19-year-old striker’s sudden emergence as one of the league’s most clinical finishers has reignited his club’s campaign while putting bigger clubs on alert.
Mamah’s scoring spree includes decisive strikes against four opponents and a match-winning double against Basake Holy Stars. His only blank came against Karela United in an otherwise flawless month of performances that have propelled defending champions Samartex into top-five contention. The young forward has already surpassed his six-goal tally from last season with seven this term, demonstrating remarkable development in his second top-flight campaign.
What makes Mamah’s rise particularly impressive is his all-around game. Beyond pure goalscoring, the former Tema Youth product has evolved into a complete modern striker – combining physical presence with intelligent movement and composed finishing. His ability to both lead the line and link play has made him the focal point of Samartex’s attack, with teammates increasingly looking to him in crucial moments.
This purple patch comes at a pivotal time for both player and club. Samartex’s title defense appeared to be fading before Mamah’s goals sparked their late-season resurgence. For the player himself, the timing could hardly be better with transfer rumors beginning to circulate and Ghana’s national team selectors taking notice.
While European scouts have reportedly been monitoring his progress, Samartex officials will hope to retain their prized asset as they push for continental qualification. Mamah’s sudden transformation from promising youngster to match-winner exemplifies the Ghana Premier League’s capacity for unearthing raw talent – provided they get the platform to shine. With five games remaining, all eyes will be on whether the league’s newest star can maintain his scorching form.
