In a major recognition of consistency and outstanding form in Ghana’s domestic circuit, Port City FC right-back Samuel Baabu Aryee has officially been handed his maiden call-up to the Ghana National Under-23 team, the Black Meteors.
The highly rated defender, often nicknamed ‘Chorkor’ by local supporters for his dynamic cross-delivery and relentless engine along the right flank, earns his international spot following an exceptional run of performances in the Access Bank Division One League.
Aryee’s rise to the national setup represents a rewarding milestone in a career defined by dedication, tactical discipline, and steady development across Accra’s competitive grassroots systems.
From Grassroots Promise to the National Spotlight
Aryee’s footballing journey began at Barca Kids FC in Mamprobi, Accra, where his technical composure and defensive tenacity first stood out. He continued his development through Charity FC, Sporting FC, Best IV FC, and Truelife FC, refining his versatility and work rate at each stage.
Since joining Port City FC, the modern right-back has cemented his reputation as one of the most reliable full-backs in the league. Capable of seamlessly transitioning from key defensive interventions to high-tempo overlapping runs, Aryee’s two-footed capability and crossing ability have added a distinct attacking dimension to his club’s setup.
The inclusion of the energetic full-back brings added competition, athleticism, and tactical breadth to the Black Meteors as they prepare for upcoming international fixtures and Olympic qualification matches.
