Italian-Ghanaian striker James Tenkorang has signed with Trestina.
Italian-Ghanaian striker James Tenkorang has signed with Serie D club Sporting Club Trestina for the 2026/27 season, bringing notable attacking prowess and significant experience to the team. The club has highlighted this signing as a crucial enhancement to their offensive capabilities following Tenkorang's successful tenure last season with Orvietana and Real Monterotondo. Tenkorang arrives with an impressive lower-league background in Italy. After honing his skills in the youth ranks of Arminia Bielefeld in Germany, he transitioned to Italy and established himself as a key player in Serie D, representing teams like Fano and Livorno. His performance has shown consistent growth, with last season marking the peak of his career, netting 10 goals and providing five assists. Trestina is optimistic that his reliability in front of goal will bolster their competitiveness in the upcoming season. This new chapter in 2026/27 offers Tenkorang an opportunity to continue building on his recent success. His addition is expected to bring speed, decisiveness, and a consistent threat inside the penalty area. "I'm really excited to be here. Although I haven't met everyone face-to-face yet, I've already been impressed by the club, the staff, and my teammates. I'm eager to begin and give everything for this jersey," he remarked. "The fans can expect a player who always puts forth his best effort on the field, and I aim to make my mark game after game. I'll strive to contribute in any way I can."
