Paul Quaye (born 16 September 1995) is a Ghanaian footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder.
Born in Accra, Quaye joined Espanyol Barcelona's youth setup in 2009, aged 13. He made his senior debuts with the reserves in the 2011–12 campaign, in Segunda División B.
On 11 March 2012, Quaye made his first-team - and La Liga - debut, playing three minutes in a 5–1 home routing against Rayo Vallecano,[1] and being the youngest foreign player to play in the top level. He spent the vast majority of his spell with the B-side, however.
On 13 July 2014 Quaye rescinded with the Pericos and moved to another reserve team, Atlético Malagueño in Tercera División.[2] On 1 September of the following year he joined Elche CF, being assigned to its B-team also in the fourth tier.[3]
