Patrick Bahanack’s impressive season with Ethnikos Achnas in the Cypriot First Division has put him on the radar of several clubs, with both Omonia Nicosia and Slovan Liberec reportedly interested in securing his services.
The Cameroonian defender, who has played 23 matches this season, has established himself as a key figure at the heart of the Achnas defense, earning attention from bigger clubs ahead of the summer transfer window.
From France to Cyprus: Bahanack’s rise
The 27-year-old’s journey has seen him develop across multiple leagues.
Trained at Stade de Reims, where he signed his first professional contract in 2018, Bahanack sought opportunities abroad, moving to Greece to gain valuable playing time.
His time in Greece included spells with Ergotelis, PAS Lamia, and Levadiakos, where he played a crucial role in the club’s promotion to the Greek Super League after winning the second division.
Following a stint at Niki Volos, he made the switch to Cyprus, where he has since flourished with Ethnikos Achnas.
Potential move on the horizon
According to 237foot, Omonia Nicosia has already initiated talks with Bahanack’s representatives, signaling their intent to bring him into their squad.
However, the Cypriot giants are not the only club in pursuit. Slovan Liberec, a competitive side in the Czech First League, is also keen on signing the defender and is reportedly prepared to offer him a two-year contract at the end of the season.
Uncertain future for Bahanack
Ethnikos Achnas, currently battling to retain their top-flight status, remains hopeful of keeping Bahanack should they avoid relegation.
However, with growing interest and his market value estimated at €300,000 by Transfermarkt, the Cameroonian centre-back could be set for a new challenge in a more competitive league.
With the summer transfer window approaching, Bahanack faces a pivotal decision regarding the next step in his career.
Whether he remains in Cyprus or moves on to a more ambitious project, his performances this season have ensured that he will be a sought-after player in the coming months.
