Who is Kwesi Appiah?

Kwesi Appiah is an English footballer who plays for Notts County on loan from Crystal Palace as a striker.

Born in Thamesmead, London, Appiah is a product of the Ebbsfleet United PASE youth system, and graduated to the first team in August 2008. He scored his first goal for the club with his first touch after coming on as a substitute against Woking on 20 September 2008.

Appiah missed training in October and after leaving the ground, he failed to report back to the club. His disappearance was explained in October, when League One team Peterborough United announced the signing of Appiah, on a three and a half-year deal. The matter was reported to The Football Association, as it was reported in breach of regulations. On 15 December it was reported that the FA had decided that the approach made for Appiah by Peterborough was "not proven" and so no ruling could be made.

Appiah was loaned out back to the Conference with Weymouth in February 2009 and made his debut in a 2–0 defeat to York City. He suffered from an ankle ligament injury that ruled him out of a game against Altrincham, but returned for the 5–0 defeat to Burton Albion. He returned to Peterborough on 20 March. He spent time at Northern Premier League side King's Lynn in 2009, where he played 9 games scoring 9 goals, including a hat-trick against Durham City in a 11–0 win. Next joining Kettering Town on a month's loan on 19 January 2010.
