The Philadelphia Union acquired forward Ezekiel Alladoh from Sweden's IF Brommapojkarna on Wednesday for a reported club-record transfer fee of $4.5 million.

The 20-year-old Ghanaian striker is under contract through 2028 with options for 2029 and 2030.

Alladoh recorded eight goals and one assist in 32 matches across all competitions for Brommapojkarna in 2025.

"Ezekiel is a talented young striker who has shown encouraging potential in a competitive European league," Philadelphia head coach Bradley Carnell said.

"His pace, directness, and vertical movement provide a strong foundation, and at 6-foot-3, he brings strength and an undeniable presence to the position. His work rate and high-level mentality align well with our system, and we're excited to welcome him to Philadelphia as he continues to develop his game."

Alladoh netted three goals and one assist in 13 matches with the Accra Lions in Ghana Premier League before moving to the Swedish top flight last January.
