Prince Osei Owusu (born 7 January 1997) is a German professional footballer who plays as a forward.

Early life

Despite his mother not wanting him to play football, Owusu was always playing prompting his father to eventually register him with SV Grün-Weiss Sommerrain, before later joining FC Stuttgart-Cannstatt.[1] At age 12, he had a trial with the Stuttgarter Kickers, but did not make the squad, but later had a trial with the VfB Stuttgart academy, where he was accepted.[1]

Club career

On 25 July 2015, Owusu made his professional debut with VfB Stuttgart II in the 3. Liga against Dynamo Dresden.[2] In August 2015, he signed a three-year extension with the club.[3]

In January 2017, he signed with 1899 Hoffenheim II.[4]

Bundesliga side Arminia Bielefeld for the 2018–19 season.[5] On 26 January 2019, he was loaned out to TSV 1860 Munich for the rest of the season.[6] On 31 August 2019, he returned to 1860 Munich for another loan spell until the end of 2019–20 season.[7][8] Upon his return from his loan in the summer of 2020, he was allowed to leave the club with a year remaining on his contract, with the club leaving him off of their pre-season training camp roster.[9][10]

In October 2020, Owusu signed with SC Paderborn.[11][12]

In January 2022, Owusu moved to 2. Bundesliga side Erzgebirge Aue until the end of the 2021–22 season.[13][14] The agreement included an option for another season in case Erzgebirge Aue avoided relegation.[13]

In July 2022, Owusu moved to 2. Bundesliga club Jahn Regensburg.[15]

On 4 August 2023, Owusu was signed by Major League Soccer side Toronto FC.[16][17] On 23 March 2024, he scored his first MLS goal, in a 2-0 victory over Atlanta United FC.[18][19] After finishing as the team's leading goal scorer in 2024, with nine league goals and twelve in all competitions, the club declined his contract option for the 2025 season.[20]
