Agymang Badu signs 4-year contract extension at Udinese

Ghana midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang Badu has signed a four-year contract at Italian Club Udinese.

The 25-year-old committed his future with the Serie A side by extending his stay until 2020.

Badu’s latest deal with the Zebra has poured cold water on his speculated move away from the Club.

The Ghanaian international was reported to be on the verge of joining English Premiership side Watford.

The ex-Ghana U20 World Cup winner has been with Udinese since 2010 when he joined the Club from Ghanaian lower division side Berekum Arsenal having spent time on loan at Asante Kotoko and Spanish side Recreativo de Huelva.

He is expected to help Giuseppe Iachini’s side finish in a respectable position after a disappointing campaign last season where they narrowly escaped relegation.
