In 2014, Mohammed joined Ghanaian club International Allies FC.[2][3][4][5][6] He scored 9 goals, assisted 3 goals and ended as the top goal scorer of the club in his debut season, 2015 Ghanaian Premier League.[5] Due to his impressive form, he ended the season as the club's best player and his contract was extended by an extra year set to expire in 2016.[7][8][9] In late December 2015, he went on trails at Al Mokawloon Al Arab SC.[10]

On 10 October 2017 after his contract with Inter Allies had ended, Mohammed joined Lithuanian side FC Stumbras which was being managed by former Ghana national team coach Mariano Barreto.

His previous performances for G.D. Gafanha and R.D. Águeda in the Campeonato de Portugal league attracted interest from other clubs within the league. Due to that, he was signed by F.C. Arouca in July 2019 on a one-year deal on a free transfer as the club sought for a way back into the Liga Portugal 2 after being relegated the previous season.[16][17] During his only season, 2019–20 season, he became one of the club's top performers in the process playing 18 league matches scored 3 goals and made 7 assists to help them gain automatic qualification in to the Liga Portugal 2.[1][16] They gained promotion for being one of the two teams with the most points in all first-stage series before Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) cancelled all non-professional competitions due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Portugal.[18] During their 2019–20 Taça de Portugal campaign, in a match against S.C. Espinho, he came off the bench to score in the 94th minute of additional time to being the match to a 2–2 level and help push the match into an extra time. However they lost the match in extra time after Bruno Valente scored a goal in the 113rd minute.[19]
