On 14 July 2021, Sheriff Tiraspol announced the signing of Addo.[4] In his first season, he played 34 matches including six in the UEFA Champions League and one in the Europa League as Sheriff won the double, the Moldovan National Division and the Moldovan Cup.[5]

Spartak Subotica

Following speculation on his possible transfer to Red Star Belgrade, on 10 January 2023 Addo joined fellow Serbian side Spartak Subotica, signing a contract until June 2025 with the club.[6]

International career

Addo made his debut for Ghana national team on 11 November 2021 in a World Cup qualifier against Ethiopia.[7] He was part of the final 28-man squad named for the 2021 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Cameroon.[8]
