Sasaamo Panin FC – Ashanti Links FC
Sasaamo Panin FC vs Ashanti Links FC — complete 96-minute recording (360p), tracked from kick-off to the final whistle; he appears to play the whole match, wearing No. 21.
Ali Issah is a tall, right-footed Ghanaian centre-back and the captain of Sasaamo Panin FC (Ghana Division Two). Born on 1 January 2009 and standing 1.87 m, he operates mainly in a high defensive line, often holding close to halfway during sustained possession, and uses a long stride, aerial reach and front-foot defending to protect the space behind him. Ever-present across the season alongside RSM-represented forward Solomon Tutu Osei, he was tracked across a complete 96-minute match in which he appears to play every minute. He is looking for a structured environment that will sharpen his scanning, body orientation and progressive passing.
To situate Issah’s current level, this benchmark uses three reference tiers: an elite global centre-back (superior), a Ghana international centre-back at a comparable profile (peer level) and a baseline for a typical Ghana Division Two starter (inferior). All ratings are illustrative RSM scouting approximate values, not independently verified statistics.
| Tier | Player | Club | Similar Profile | Point of Comparison |
| — | A. Issah * | Sasaamo Panin FC (GHA) | CB, aerial presence with recovery mobility and a high-line mentality | Team captain, ever-present across the season alongside RSM-represented forward Solomon Tutu Osei; a single match formally video-coded to date |
| Superior | William Saliba | Arsenal (ENG) | Elite global reference, composed and aerially dominant centre-back | The archetype of the modern, aerially dominant centre-back that Issah’s own profile aspires toward at the very top of the game |
| Peer Level | Joseph Aidoo | Girona (ESP) | Ghana international centre-back, athletic and physically strong | A direct national-team pathway reference at a comparable physical and aerial profile |
| Inferior (baseline) | Ghana Division Two starter | — | Composite baseline: typical Ghana Division Two starting centre-back | Not a named player — an RSM composite used to show how far Issah sits above the typical level of his league |
Issah offers a rare combination for a 17-year-old defender: a 1.87 m frame with genuine recovery stride, aerial reach and the personality to captain his side and defend a high line. His most transferable traits are the length of his stride, his ability to protect space behind the line and his willingness to step forward when the opponent receives between the lines. Priorities are body orientation, earlier scanning, left-foot use and line-breaking passing — all coachable in a club that builds from the back with a compact high line. Recommendation: track closely and complete the picture with video analysis of further matches. His market value is not fixed at this stage; RSM lets interested clubs’ offers set the reference point.
