Addo went to the United States to attend college and play soccer at George Mason University where he was a 1992 First Team All American. On the club level, Addo played for Cagliari (Italy), VfB Stuttgart and FSV Frankfurt (Germany), Sparta Rotterdam (the Netherlands), Belenenses (Portugal), Ethnikos Piraeus (Greece), Tampa Bay Mutiny, MetroStars (United States) and Kitchee (Hong Kong).
Joseph Addo features in the book The Miracle of Castel di Sangro by Joe McGinniss where it seems a transfer for Joseph from FSV Frankfurt to A.S.D. Castel di Sangro Calcio had been agreed, only for the Castel di Sangro's owners to pull out. Joe McGinniss' account asserts that he, the club owners and members of the Castel di Sangro playing staff were unhappy about this, and that the collapse of the transfer was entirely because coach Osvaldo Jaconi did not want Addo in his squad.
International career
Addo played for Ghana at the 1996 Summer Olympics. For the senior team, he appeared 44 times, scoring two goals.
Personal life
Joe is married to Cynthia Addo and has two kids.
