Brimah Razak (born 22 June 1987 in Accra) is a Ghanaian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper.
Club career
After rarely settling as a youth player, Razak started his professional career in January 2007 with Portugal'sG.D. Chaves, playing in the country's second division. The following year he moved down to the third level and joined Madeira's C.F. União, being first-choice as the club finished in third position in its group – albeit without a final promotion.
In the 2008 summer Razak returned to a club he had already represented as a youth, Polideportivo Ejido inSpain's division three, backing up veteran Joaquín Valerio in his first and only season. Subsequently he signed with Real Betis, but spent his first year in the same category as in the previous campaign, as he appeared solely for the reserve side.
Razak was promoted to Betis' first team for the 2010–11 season, with the Andalusians in the second division. On 1 September, after having appeared in a friendly with Atlético Madrid on 24 July, he made his official debut, playing the full 90 minutes in a domestic cup game against UD Salamanca, a 2–1 home win
