The search for a General Manager is over for the Minnesota Vikings. They sign Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, who comes from the Cleveland Browns and has big goals.

Munich/Minnesota – The Minnesota Vikings have a new general manager.

The franchise announced that Kwesi Adofo-Mensah will be the new general manager with the Vikings. He was previously vice president of football operations with the Cleveland Browns. “We are pleased to welcome Kwesi to the Minnesota Vikings,” Vikings owner Mark Wilf announced in a statement.

Praise for Adofo-Mensah

Wilf went on to praise the new Vikings GM’s “unique background, diverse football experience and leadership qualities.” At the Browns, Adofo-Mensah worked closely with GM Andrew Berry and provided input on all squad decisions.

In his statement, Adofo-Mensah expressed his gratitude for the opportunity he now has with the Vikings and announced that the work now begins “to bring a Super Bowl to Vikings fans.” But to do that, the new GM first has to find a new coach, his first and at the same time probably most important task.
