Career
Inter Allies
Assinki joined Tema-based club International Allies in 2018 and played for them in the Ghana Premier League prior to moving to Denmark.[4] He made his debut in the 2020-21 Ghana Premier League season, making 12 appearances in 14 games before the league was brought to an abrupt end due to the COVID-19 pandemic. His performances in the league earned him one man of the match award within the season.[5]
HB Køge
In July 2020, International Allies confirmed that Assinki had been signed by Danish 1st Division side HB Køge on a 4-year contract, in the process joining his Inter Allies teammate Victorien Adebayor at the club.[6][7] On 7 January 2022 Køge confirmed, that they had terminated the contract with Assinki due to a "personnel matter", with the explanation that he had "violated the values and rules of the club".[8][9]
