Sharaf Mahama humbles Ghana Esports president in FIFA

Representing Legacy Rise Sports, Sharaf didn’t just win—he made a statement.

He dismantled his opponent with a convincing 4-1 scoreline, showing poise, flair, and control from start to finish.

As the match progressed, viewers watched with wide eyes and wide grins, many struggling to believe what they were seeing.

Igor, clearly outmatched, attempted to brush off the loss, claiming he had been on the winning team.

But Sharaf’s playful clapback, “Oh, how?”, quickly reminded everyone who had truly come out on top.

Sharaf Mahama shows up at Pathways Project

Sharaf’s dominant virtual display comes shortly after his involvement in Jeremie Frimpong’s Pathways Project, a talent and networking event held at the AIS Sports Complex in East Legon.

The event, which took place on Saturday, June 28, brought together scouts, athletes, creatives, and football stakeholders, per Pathways.

Sharaf, who doubles as a FIFA-accredited agent, was there not just as a guest but as a key participant shaping the future of sports representation in Ghana.
