Mohammed Fuseini has signed a new contract with Union Saint-Gilloise, extending his stay at the Belgian champions until 2028, with an option for a further year.
The 23-year-old Ghanaian forward, who joined the Brussels club last summer, has opted for stability over potential moves abroad, choosing to continue his development at Parc Duden.
His decision comes after a standout debut season that saw him play a pivotal role in securing USG’s historic league title.
Fuseini wasted little time making an impression following his arrival, quickly establishing himself as a fan favourite.
In league action, he scored nine goals and provided three assists, while across all competitions he made 42 appearances and netted 11 times.
His consistent performances convinced club management to secure his services for the long term.
The forward’s commitment to Union Saint-Gilloise bucks the trend of high-profile departures in modern football, signalling both the club’s and player’s ambition to build on recent success.
This extension shows that the club believes in him, and he believes in this project, a club spokesperson said.
Currently sidelined with a pre-season injury, Fuseini remains determined to return to action as soon as possible.
His focus is on helping the team defend their domestic crown and make a strong impact in European competition.
Union Saint-Gilloise’s decision to tie down Fuseini reflects their strategy of retaining key talent to sustain competitiveness.
The club, whose rise in Belgian football has been remarkable in recent seasons, will count on the Ghanaian’s firepower as they prepare for challenges ahead.
For Fuseini, the new deal offers continuity, a chance to further develop his game in a familiar environment, and the opportunity to lead the line for a team that has embraced him.
For Union Saint-Gilloise, it is a statement of intent — keeping hold of one of their brightest stars in a market where such loyalty has become increasingly rare.
