Sion Oppong joins Toulouse FC as Abdelghafour Lamirat moves from Wydad to RS Berkane

Africafoot’s 10 August 2026 news feed is led by two confirmed moves involving African football talent, with Swedish-born Ghanaian winger Sion Oppong joining Toulouse FC and Moroccan midfielder Abdelghafour Lamirat leaving Wydad for RS Berkane.

The updates form part of Africafoot’s live coverage of African football, tracking transfer rumours, completed deals, records and other developments involving African players.

Oppong signs for Toulouse FC

At 18, Sion Oppong has taken the next step in his developing career by moving from IF Brommapojkarna to Toulouse FC.

The left winger had been playing for IF Brommapojkarna in the Allsvenskan, Sweden’s top flight, before Toulouse FC confirmed his arrival on the club’s official website.

Oppong has agreed a four-season contract with the French club. The deal ties him to Toulouse FC until June 2030, giving him a long-term opportunity to continue his development in France.

The young forward is valued at 450,000 euros. His move represents a significant progression for a player who has reached the age of 18 and is now beginning a new stage of his professional career with Toulouse FC.

The transfer had previously been announced exclusively by Africafoot before being formally confirmed by the French club. Toulouse FC’s official announcement has now completed the process and confirmed Oppong as the latest player to leave IF Brommapojkarna for a new challenge.

Lamirat leaves Wydad for RS Berkane

Moroccan midfielder Abdelghafour Lamirat has also completed a move, leaving Wydad to join RS Berkane.

The transfer, first reported exclusively by Africafoot, was officially announced on RS Berkane’s social media channels. Lamirat, who is 28, has signed a three-year contract with his new club.

His agreement will keep him at RS Berkane until 2029. The midfielder’s market value is estimated at 550,000 euros.

Lamirat’s departure brings an end to his time with Wydad and begins a new chapter with RS Berkane. The move was confirmed by the player’s new club after Africafoot had reported the impending transfer.

Both deals are among the latest developments being followed in Africafoot’s dedicated coverage of the African football market. Oppong’s move takes him from the Allsvenskan to Toulouse FC on a contract running until June 2030, while Lamirat remains in Moroccan football after switching from Wydad to RS Berkane on a deal through 2029.
