Cameroonian forward Ako Alexis has completed a transfer to Al-Ahly Sports Club Wad Madani, one of Sudan’s historic football institutions, marking a new chapter in his professional career after an impressive spell with Stade Renard FC of Melong.
kick442.con learnt via Tiko Magazine that the 27-year-old attacker, known for his sharp movement and eye for goal has joint the Wad Madani-based outfit ahead of the 2025 Sudan Premier League campaign.
His signing is seen as a statement of intent from Al-Ahly, who continue to strengthen their squad as they aim for a strong league finish this season.
A rising star from Cameroon’s Elite One
Ako Alexis enjoyed a standout 2024/25 campaign with Stade Renard, where he produced 15 goal contributions (10 goals and 5 assists) — a return that made him one of the most effective forwards in the MTN Elite One. His performances consistently caught the eye for their blend of pace, composure, and ability to influence games in decisive moments.
The forward’s versatility — being able to play both as a central striker and from the wings — made him a key figure for the Melong-based club. His form also drew attention from clubs across North and East Africa before Al-Ahly Wad Madani eventually secured his signature.
From TKC to Sudan: A career built on steady progress
Before his rise at Stade Renard, Ako represented TKC of Yaoundé, a club once home to Liberian legend George Weah during his early years in Cameroon. He also had stints with Tiko United FC and Avion Academy, clubs renowned for grooming young talent and giving them a platform to showcase their potential.
This steady progression through Cameroon’s domestic football ladder highlights Ako’s persistence and growth, eventually earning him a move beyond national borders.
A new challenge in Sudan
At Al-Ahly Wad Madani, Alexis will compete in the Sudan Premier League, a division that has recently attracted an increasing number of foreign players seeking competitive football and continental exposure. The club, which boasts a passionate fan base and a proud history, is looking to re-establish itself among Sudan’s elite after several years of rebuilding.
His arrival adds firepower to Al-Ahly’s attacking options and provides head coach [Coach name if available] with a proven finisher capable of adapting quickly to the physical and tactical demands of Sudanese football.
From Melong to Wad Madani
Ako’s journey reflects the steady emergence of talents from Cameroon’s domestic league who are earning moves abroad based on merit. Having developed through local clubs such as EEMSA of Tiko, TKC, Tiko United, and Avion Academy before making his mark at Stade Renard, he now joins a growing list of Cameroonian exports making their presence felt across African football.
As he settles into life in Wad Madani, the Cameroonian forward will be keen to replicate his form from the MTN Elite One and help Al-Ahly challenge for honours in the upcoming campaign.
