He made his debut on 29 December 2019, after coming on at half time for Ernest Mwankurinah in a 2–2 draw against Legon Cities.[4] At the end of the 2020–21 season, he scored 7 goals and made 7 assists in 32 league appearances and also won three man of the match awards in the process, ending the season as the club's top goal scorer.[5] With Liberty Professional's failure to maintain in the top flight league due to being relegated to the Ghana Division One League, he was linked with a move to Premier League sides Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak.[6]
