Andrew Buah (born 4 May 2006) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for club Port Vale.
Buah joined Port Vale after impressing in a trial game at Keele University in 2021.[1] He made his first-team debut on 10 October 2023, coming on as a 73rd-minute substitute for Ethan Chislett in a 1–1 draw with Newcastle United U21 in an EFL Trophy group stage game at Vale Park.[2] The following month, he was played out of position at left-wing-back against Wrexham in his first start in senior football, and manager Andy Crosby said that he should "be really proud of his performance".[3] On 23 December, he joined Northern Premier League Division One West club Newcastle Town on a work experience loan, alongside youth-team teammates Eli Fisher and Daniel Mahaffy.[4] However, he picked up an injury and was not able to feature for the club.[1] He signed a one-year professional contract in July 2024 after manager Darren Moore concluded that he "possesses all of the raw attributes to kick on and become a real asset to our squad".[5]
Buah is a versatile forward with an exciting playing style.[6]
