Nana Opoku Ampomah (born 2 January 1996) is a Ghanaian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Canadian Premier League club Forge FC.

Early life[edit]

Ampomah played youth football with Prisco Minis, Santos Academy (the Ghanaian training center of Brazilian club Santos FC), and FC Bravo Bravo in his native Ghana.[1] In 2016, he joined the U21 team of Belgian club KV Mechelen.[2]

Club career[edit]

In July 2016, Ampomah signed a three-year contract with an option for an additional season with Belgian Pro League club Waasland-Beveren.[2]

In 2019, he signed with German Bundesliga club Fortuna Düsseldorf.[3] In October 2020, he was loaned to Royal Antwerp of the Belgian Pro League.[4] After failing to secure a move to another club in the summer of 2021, he returned to Antwerp for another season on loan.[5] After his loan spell, he returned to Fortuna Düsseldorf in June 2022, after not making any appearances in his second season.[6] After dealing with injuries upon his return,[7] and arriving to pre-season late, he was sent to the second team, Fortuna Düsseldorf II, in the Regionalliga during the 2022-23 season.[8][9] He departed the club at the end of June 2023, upon the expiry of his contract.[10]

In February 2024, Ampomah signed a multi-year contract with Forge FC of the Canadian Premier League.[11][12] Due to work permit issues, his arrival to the club was delayed, with Ampomah finally able to join the club in June 2024.[13] He made his debut on 15 June, recording an assist in a 2-2 draw against the HFX Wanderers.[14][15]

International career[edit]

Ampomah has earned four caps for the Ghana national team (one appearance in World Cup qualification, one appearance in African Cup of Nations Qualification, and two friendly appearances).[16]
