Career

Manchester City

Kwakwa was signed by English club Manchester City in August 2012, and immediately loaned out to Norwegian Tippeligaen club Strømsgodset IF.[1][2]

Strømsgodset

Kwakwa arrived at Strømsgodset in September 2012, alongside fellow Right To Dream Academy graduate Bismark Adjei-Boateng.[2] He spent the final months of the 2012 season on the reserves team in the Second Division, and impressed, in particular with a great goal from 40 meters.[3] Unfortunately, he was injured in the 2013 pre-season, and had to train alternatively for four weeks.[4] He made his debut on 13 April 2013, when he played the last 6 minutes in the match against Vålerenga.[5] Unfortunately, he was injured again in June 2013, when he tore a tendon in his thigh.[6] He never played for the first team again during the loan spell, and returned to the English club when he was unable to renew his work permit.[7]

TPS

He was loaned out to Finnish club TPS in September 2013, but only played one reserve match before the loan deal was canceled.[1]

Ullensaker/Kisa

On 17 March 2014, he signed a permanent deal with Norwegian First Division club Ull/Kisa, lasting until December 2015.[8] He made his debut for the club on 16 May 2014 in a match against Bryne,[1][5] and played a total of 17 matches for the club in the 2014 season, scoring 3 goals.[1][5] After the team was relegated, the player was able to leave the club on a free transfer.

Falkenbergs FF

On 24 February 2015, Kwakwa signed a short-term deal lasting until 30 June the same year with the Swedish Allsvenskan team Falkenbergs FF, with an option to extend the contract for another three years if the player impresses.[9]

Jönköpings Södra IF

Jönköpings Södra IF announced on 20 November 2018, that they had signed Kwakwa for the 2019 season.[10]
