Stephen Acquah (born 1 May 2006) is a Ghanaian footballer who plays as a defender for Danish Superliga club FC Nordsjælland.[1]
Career
[edit]He was a member of the Right to Dream Academy in Ghana from the age of ten years-old, prior to signing for Danish Superliga club FC Nordsjælland in May 2024 as an 18 year-old, initially to link up with the club's under-19 team, but agreeing to a four-year contract.[2][3]
After impressing for the youth team during the Premier League International Cup, he joined-up the club's first team squad in February 2025.[2] He scored his first league goal for the club in a 5-2 win over Randers FC on 13 April 2025 in just his second appearance.[4][5] In May 2025, he scored a late equaliser for the club to secure a 2-2 draw against Brondby IF in the Danish Superliga, 40 seconds after coming on as a second-half substitute, to score his second goal in four league appearances.[6][7]
