Baba signed for Chelsea from Augsburg in the summer of 2015 and featured as a left-back for our men’s first team during his first campaign at Stamford Bridge. He made 23 appearances before moving to Schalke for loan spells either side of recovering from a knee injury sustained while with Ghana at the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.

Further loans followed at Reims, Real Mallorca and PAOK. He spent the previous two seasons in the Championship at Reading.

We wish Baba well as he begins the next chapter of his career.
