2. Defender – DOB 26/05/2002

Adding further strength to the Mariners’ defence, Abankwah arrives bringing a reputation as a pacy and powerful full-back with valuable experience at this level of the football pyramid.

His career began in the Burnley Academy youth setup before he transitioned into senior football with Macclesfield FC.

Following a stint at Wythenshawe Town, Isaac stepped up to the National League North with Farsley Celtic, where he proved his pedigree by making 24 appearances in the division.

Most recently, the defender has been plying his trade in the Northern Premier League with Bamber Bridge, before joining Marine in summer 2026.

Footballing talent clearly runs in the family, as Isaac is the older brother of current Watford and Republic of Ireland international centre-half, James Abankwah.
