Career

edit

Kwabena Adusei has played for several Ghanaian teams including Asante Kotoko as a defender. On 30 May 2014, it was announced that he joined the South African top-flight side Mpumalanga Black Aces, along with Zimbabwean midfielder Peter Moyo. The centre-back however vehemently denied knowledge of the club in an interview with Footy-Ghana.com hours later.[1] The South African club later had to pull their claim off their official website.[2] Adusei is currently under contract with Ghanaian Champions Asante Kotoko SC. In August 2014 he signed with Mpumalanga Black Aces.[citation needed]

International career

edit

In November 2013, coach Maxwell Konadu invited him to be a part of the Ghana squad for the 2013 WAFU Nations Cup.[3] He helped the team to a first-place finish after Ghana beat Senegal by three goals to one.[4]
