Taunggyi, 8 December
    

The Myanmar National league side Shan United has signed a half-season deal with Ghanaian defender Tagoe Daniel on undisclosed fee.

Five-foot-nine-inch tall Tagoe Daniel was born in Ghana in 1986. He played for Kamaz Naberezhnye Chelny in 2006-2007 and then he went to the Kyrgyz Club Dodoi Bishkek FC where he played five seasons and acquired Kyrgyzstani citizenship. He won the Best Kyrgyzstan Player of the year award in 2009 as the 23-year-old was instrumental to Dodoi Bishkek’s achievement that season. Daniel made his debut for Kyrgyzstan in 2014 as African-born player representing Kyrgyzstan on the international stage.

In 2018, he signed a one-year contract with Bangladesh Premier League club Chittagong Abahani Limited. After one season in Chittagong, now he has moved to Shan United. “I’m very happy with the Club. I want to help the Club in AFC Cup. I’ve played AFC Cup 8 times and I believe my experience can assist the Club in international tournament,” Daniel expressed his feelings towards Shan United.
