Ethiopia Premier League transfer window opened on July 8 and it is expected to run till first week of new season in August or November.

Reigning champions St.George have started to flex their financial muscle in the market and are believed to be getting ready to raid and weaken opposition for top talent. This has raised eyebrows with certain quotas citing foul play.

Among top targets for Kidus Giorgis are;

1.Tadele Mengesha from Arbaminch City FC;

The gifted player is regarded as one of top midfielders in Ethiopian football history. He moved to Arbaminch City from Dedebit FC last season and was among stand out performers who light up the league.

Most pundits highly rated him and appreciated his efforts during World Cup 2018 qualifier match, in which Walia Ibex drew 3-3 against top ranked Desert Foxes of Algeria at the Addis Ababa Stadium this year.

2.Firew Solomon From Defence;

Like Tedele, Firew had an amazing season and was a pillar in Defense’s superb run in the Ethiopia Cup which was cut short, losing to Kidus on penalty in the final.

Defense qualified to represent the country in the CAF Confederations Cup.

The record 13 times champions, Kidus Giorgis, are re-energising ahead of title defense next season and a run in the CAF Champions League.
