Born in Ghana, he moved to Central Asia in 2006, playing one season in Tajikistan for Regar-TadAZ Tursunzoda. He moved to neighbouring Kyrgyzstan in 2007, on loan to local giants Dordoi, for whom he signed the following season.

By the end of the 2013 season, Tetteh reached the milestone of scoring at least 100 goals in Kyrgyzstan League and Cup matches.[1]

After nine years with Dordoi Bishkek, Tetteh moved to Bahraini Second Division side Al-Ittihad on 30 September 2016.[2] In September 2017, Tetteh joined Turkish Regional Amateur League side Tatvan Gençlerbirliği.[3]

In October 2018, Tetteh joined Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi.[4]

Tetteh came to fame in Kyrgyzstan immediately after he made his international debut at the 2014 AFC Challenge Cup qualification tournament. He scored all of Kyrgyzstan's goals in three consecutive 1–0 victories.[5][6][7]
