The Albanian Football Federation confirmed Dwamena "unfortunately passed away," while the Ghana Football Association said he "suffered a heart attack."

"The Ghana Football Association is sad to hear of the death of our former player Raphael Dwamena and wish to express our deepest condolences to his family at this difficult moment," the organization said in a statement.
