English-born Ghanaian prodigy Josh-Kofi Acheampong signs first professional contract with Chelsea

English-born Ghanaian prodigy Josh-Kofi Acheampong has officially signed his first professional contract with Chelsea.

The highly talented teenager, who recently showcased his skills with the England U-17 team, has committed to the club until the summer of 2026.

According to a Chelsea press release: “Academy defender Josh-Kofi Acheampong has signed his first professional contract with Chelsea. Acheampong joined the Blues as an under-8 and progressed through the youth ranks at Cobham. A versatile defender, he has been a regular for our Under-18s this season and has played for the Under-21s. »

Acheampong, who turns 17 in May, is making waves on the football scene. He was a crucial part of the England U-17 team that competed at the European Championships over the summer and the World Cup in November.

Despite his impressive contributions to England’s youth teams, his international future remains uncertain, leaving the door open for possible consideration by the Ghana Football Federation.

As the talented defender continues his promising career, England and Ghana could compete for his allegiance on the international stage.
