Acquah re-joined Maidenhead on loan on 13 March 2020. [7] He was released by Southend at the end of the 2020–21 season, [8] before re-joining Maidenhead permanently. [9] Acquah found form in his second full season at York Road, scoring 13 goals in the National League before a debut for England C on 21 March 2023.
