Al-Etisalat SC have completed the signing of Ghanaian central midfielder Micheal Kyei. The 26-year-old player joined the Iraqi club on 12 August 2026 following his exit from Al-Dhahra.

Standing 1.74m tall, the midfielder will now integrate into the Al-Etisalat SC squad. His career has transitioned through various levels of football in Ghana and North Africa before this latest move to Iraq.
