London-Born Ghanaian Defender Kwaku Donkor Joins Sutton United

National League side Sutton United have officially completed the signing of London-born Ghanaian defender Kwaku Donkor from Tamworth on a permanent deal. The 21-year-old, a former Blackpool U18 product, is expected to play a key role for the Yellows for the remainder of the season.

Capable of playing at right-back or right wing-back, Donkor brings pace, athleticism, and directness to Sutton’s defensive line, as manager Chris Agutter looks to strengthen the squad in the second half of the campaign. Donkor will don the number 50 shirt at the Gander Green Lane Stadium.

A product of the Blackpool academy, Donkor joined the Tangerines in 2021 from the Onside Football Academy in London, and he has featured 28 times across all competitions for Tamworth this season.

Upon signing, Donkor expressed his excitement: “It’s a pleasure to be here. When the gaffer explained the ambition and goals of the club, I knew I wanted to be part of it. It was a simple choice for me.”

Eligible to represent Ghana internationally due to his heritage, Donkor’s future on the national stage remains open.
