Club career
Issah began his career by Real Sportive before signing a two-year contract with AmaZulu in the South African PSL in August 2007.
On 10 October 2008, he went to Serbia for trials with Red Star Belgrade and in December 2008, he signed a 4.5-year contract with the club. In mid-May 2009, AmaZulu contacted FIFA stating they had not received the full transfer fee for Issah from Red Star Belgrade. Later that month, Issah, together with teammate and compatriot Bernard Parker sued Red Star Belgrade for failing to fulfil financial obligations. In January 2011, Issah was one of eight players told they were surplus to requirements.
In the 2011 summer transfer window, Issah signed for Norwegian club Rosenborg BK.
On 25 January 2013, Issah joined Greek Super League club Veria F.C. on a 1.5-year loan contract. After half a season, the loan was terminated.
On 1 August 2013, Issah re-joined AmaZulu after almost five years in European football while AmaZulu agreed a transfer deal with Rosenborg. In February 2014, the club reported him to the South African Football Association claiming he had disappeared. Two months later, Issah was fined $170,000 for going absent and received a four-month playing ban.
International career
Issah was a member of the Ghana national under-20 team at the 2007 Toulon Tournament.
