The Scottish elite division club have announced the signing of the 24-year-old forward of Ghanaian descent in this current transfer market

English-born Ghanaian forward Emile Acquah has joined Scottish Premiership side Dundee FC from English League Two side Barrow FC on a three-year contract, the club have confirmed.

The former Southend United U18 star is joining The Terrors in an undisclosed fee as his transfer deal is subject to international clearance.

An excerpt of official statement over his capturing read: ''Dundee Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of striker Emile Acquah on a three-year deal from Barrow FC for an undisclosed fee, subject to international clearance.The 24-year-old joins from English League Two side Barrow AFC where he has spent the past two seasons.''

Acquah has stated right after sealing his transfer move to his new employers via the club's official website: ''I’m delighted to get it signed, I heard about the interest and I’m happy that it got done quickly. I spoke to the gaffer and he said he had watched me a few times and thinks I can do well in this team and in the league, so it’s an exciting move. Dundee are a big club and when I heard of the interest, I just wanted to get here. Coming to Scotland is a good new challenge for me, so far I’ve just played in England and I feel like I want something different.

“I’m a big man but I’m good with the ball at my feet, I like to make to runs behind and I will always work hard for the team and I’m always looking to get goals. As a striker, you get judged by how many times you put the ball in the net and hopefully, I can do that many times this season.''

He has an impressive outing this term after featuring in 42 games by netting 7 times for Barrow FC across all contests in the just ended 2024-25 campaign.

Given his Ghanaian heritage, the London-born striker still remains eligible to represent Ghana on the international stage.
