Career
Addo went to the United States to attend college and play soccer at George Mason University. On the club level, Addo played for Cagliari (Italy), VfB Stuttgart and FSV Frankfurt (Germany), Sparta Rotterdam (the Netherlands), Belenenses (Portugal), Ethnikos Piraeus (Greece), Tampa Bay Mutiny, MetroStars (United States) and Kitchee (Hong Kong).
Joseph Addo features in the book The Miracle Of Castel di Sangro by Joe McGinniss where it seems a transfer for Joseph from FSV Frankfurt to A.S.D. Castel di Sangro Calcio had been agreed, only for the Castel di Sangro's owners to pull out. Joe McGinniss' account asserts that he, the club owners and members of the Castel di Sangro playing staff were unhappy about this, and that the collapse of the transfer was entirely because coach Osvaldo Jaconi did not want Addo in his squad.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“I began my editorial career with the presidency of Mr. Adams, and my principal object was to render his administration all the assistance in my power. I flattered myself with the hope of accompanying him through [his] voyage, and of partaking in a trifling degree, of the glory of the enterprise; but he suddenly tacked about, and I could follow him no longer. I therefore waited for the first opportunity to haul down my sails.”
—William Cobbett (1762–1835)
“He was at a starting point which makes many a man’s career a fine subject for betting, if there were any gentlemen given to that amusement who could appreciate the complicated probabilities of an arduous purpose, with all the possible thwartings and furtherings of circumstance, all the niceties of inward balance, by which a man swings and makes his point or else is carried headlong.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“I’ve been in the twilight of my career longer than most people have had their career.”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
