\"Ghanaian<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Yartey has joined the Swiss side on loan until the end of the season<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Ghanaian midfielder Ishmael Yartey has joined newly-promoted Swiss top-flight club Servette, GHANAsoccernet.com can exclusively reveal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 21-year-old moves from Portuguese giants Benfica on loan for one season.<\/p>\n

The move was brokered by Servette coach Jo\u00e3o Alves who coached Yartey at Benfica\u2019s U19 side when the midfielder arrived from Accra.<\/p>\n

The tactician confirmed the arrival of the talented Ghanaian player by saying: \u201cWe Yartey this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is a player I know well, since I worked with him in Benfica\u2019s U-19 .\u201d<\/p>\n

Yartey, who was on loan at Fatima and the Beira Mar, over the past two seasons, is happy to reunit with his former coach.<\/p>\n

\u201cJo\u00e3o Alves was my first coach in Europe at the junior side of Benfica and he contributed to my development,\u201d Yartey said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe wanted to bring me to Servette last season, but Benfica wanted to keep me in Portugal.<\/p>\n

\u201cServette is now in the top league and I was eager to come and Benfica also agreed. I\u2019m happy.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love playing and scoring. I\u2019m an attacking midfielder and I will give everything to Servette.<\/p>\n

Servette were playing in the Swiss Challenge League, the second tier of Swiss football having been relegated from the Swiss Super League at the end of 2004\/05 season.<\/p>\n

However, they earned promotion to the Super League after defeating Bellinzona in a relegation\/promotion playoff last month.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
