About the player
Gabriel Wesseh was in Fredrikstad's squad for a league match against Bodø/Glimt three days after he signed. The 17 July game ended 0-1, and it was his senior debut. He had turned 18 only a few weeks earlier.
The club announced the signing on 14 July 2026. The contract runs to 2030, and the American arrived on a free transfer from Atlanta United 2. His route to Norway began in the Philadelphia Union Academy, where he played from January 2022 to April 2025. In that spell he made 28 appearances and scored four goals.
The move to Atlanta United 2 in April 2025 gave him a first season of men's football in MLS Next Pro. He played 23 matches there, scored four goals and set up seven. He can operate as an attacking midfielder or on the wing. He is left-footed, but his shot data shows him striking the ball with either foot.
The Eliteserien has been his first test in Europe. By the end of the 2026 season he had made nine appearances for Fredrikstad in all competitions, including the Norwegian Cup. Seven of those were league starts, and in them he scored once and provided one assist.
He has not yet been capped by the United States at senior or youth level.
