The Rising Ghanaian Football Star Making Waves in International Football
Samuel Kwame Owusu was born on March 28, 1996, in Accra, Ghana.
Owusu's football career began in his homeland, playing for Red Bull Ghana and Vision. In August 2014, he took a leap of faith and moved to Serbia, joining Radnik Surdulica. During the 2014-15 Serbian First League, Owusu made 12 appearances, aiding his team in winning the title and securing promotion to the top flight. His skill and dedication continued to shine in the 2015-16 Serbian SuperLiga, where he scored seven goals in 30 games. This remarkable performance led to a one-year contract extension with Radnik Surdulica.
In June 2016, Owusu embarked on a new chapter in his career, transferring to Turkish club GençlerbirliğI. He signed a two-year deal with an option for another year, showcasing his potential as a valuable asset. Although he made limited appearances in the 2016-17 Turkish Cup, his talent was evident when he scored a goal in a resounding 6-0 home victory over Amed. However, he faced challenges in the league and struggled to secure playing time.
Determined to revive his career, Owusu returned to Serbia in August 2017, joining Čukarički. His three-year contract demonstrated the faith placed in his abilities, and he wore the number 19 shirt with pride. Throughout the 2017-18 Serbian SuperLiga, Owusu's prowess on the field shone brightly as he netted four goals in 30 games. The following season, he continued to impress, scoring seven goals and helping his club secure a spot in UEFA competitions after three years.
Owusu's talent and dedication caught the attention of the Ghanaian national team. In May 2019, he was named in Ghana's provisional squad for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations. A few weeks later, Owusu made his debut for the Black Stars, coming on as a substitute in a friendly match against Namibia. Despite a 1-0 loss, his performance impressed coach James Kwesi Appiah, earning him a place in the final 23-man squad for the AFCON tournament.
Owusu's next move took him to Al-Fayha, as he signed with the Saudi Arabian club on August 18, 2019. He embarked on a new chapter in his career, eager to make an impact on the international stage.
However, on October 25, 2020, he joined Al-Ahli on loan for three months from Al-Fayha, showcasing his versatility and adaptability in different football environments.
Owusu became a part of Saudi Second Division team Al-Suqoor on September 21, 2023.
