Africa-Press – Liberia. The proposed deal is expected to include a full acquisition and subsequent rebranding of Destiny to align with the FC Fassell’s identity, possibly ahead of the next kickball season.
FC Fassell, led by Chief Executive Officer Anthony Cassell Kuoh, are reportedly in advanced discussions to acquire Destiny Kickball Club as part of a broader strategy to expand its footprint in Liberian sports beyond football.
Kuoh, known for his strategic leadership and transformative influence in local football, has elevated FC Fassell to national prominence in both the men’s and women’s divisions. The club now appears poised to diversify into kickball, a sport that has gained increasing popularity in Liberia, particularly among young women.
According to sources close to the matter, negotiations between FC Fassell and Destiny Kickball Club are progressing positively. The proposed deal is expected to include a full acquisition and subsequent rebranding of Destiny to align with the FC Fassell’s identity, possibly ahead of the next kickball season.
While final details of the agreement are still being worked out, both parties are said to be optimistic about concluding the deal soon. If finalized, the move could bring a significant infusion of resources, improved infrastructure, and stronger administrative oversight to the kickball club.
Efforts to obtain official comments from executives of both FC Fassell and Destiny Kickball Club were unsuccessful up to press time.
Nonetheless, the potential acquisition has drawn praise from local sports analysts, who see the development as a progressive step for Liberian sports. Some argue that FC Fassell’s expansion into kickball reflects a commitment to promoting lesser-funded sports and advancing gender equity in athletics.
“Mr. Kuoh’s leadership has always been about more than just football. This move shows he’s thinking about the future of all sports, especially those with untapped potential,” said one sports commentator who asked not to be named.
Kickball has often suffered from underinvestment and limited access to facilities compared to football, despite its growing popularity among female athletes. Stakeholders believe the involvement of a well-organized and well-funded club like FC Fassell could help raise the sport’s standards and competitiveness nationally.
Should the acquisition be finalized, observers say it could become a model for inclusive and sustainable sports development in Liberia.
The integration of Destiny into the FC Fassell system is already generating buzz across the sporting community, signaling a possible new chapter for both clubs and for kickball as a whole.
