The 21-year-old is the junior brother of Black Stars winger Mubarak Wakaso
He moved to Portugal from Ghanaian lower-tier side Cheetah FC
The Tamale-born, who is cast in the mood of Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure, was one of the most impressive players of the Portuguese second-tier league racking 35 appearances and scoring thrice in 2012-13 season. As a result of that he joined Portuguese top-tier side Rio Ave on a three-year deal


Cast in the same mold as his brother Mubarak, Alhassan Wakaso is tough tackling defensive midfielder well known for his grit and tenacity in midfield. Alhassan is well known for his high tackling and marking attributes as well as the ability to play short simple passes. The Rio Ave midfielder differs with his brother in terms of preferred foot with the Portuguese midfielder right footed as opposed to his brother’s left foot.
