Playing career

Nkrumah joined Leyton Orient aged eight,[1] and progressed through the age groups before making his senior debut for Orient in the EFL Trophy in the 1–0 win at home to Southampton U21 on 14 September 2021, coming on as a first half substitute for Ruel Sotiriou.[2] He subsequently came on as a second half substitute for Tyrese Omotoye in Orient's next match in the tournament, the 4–0 win at Crawley Town on 5 October.[3]

Nkrumah signed a professional contract with Orient in late September 2021. Manager Kenny Jackett said, "We felt he excelled in pre-season, and has regularly been training with the first team group. Although he’s still 17-years-old, we felt he had earned a professional deal, and to continue to aid his progress in every way we can."[1]
