Born in Accra, Sakyi made his senior debut with Liberty Professionals FC, where he shared teams with future Chelsea player Michael Essien. He went on to compete professionally in a host of countries, representing Yimpaş Yozgatspor, İstanbulspor AŞ (Turkey), PFC Slavia Sofia (Bulgaria), S.C. Olhanense and C.F.

From January 2008 to 2012, other than in Portugal's Segunda Liga, Sakyi played professionally in the Cypriot First Division, the Chinese Super League, the Kazakhstan Premier League and the Indonesia Super League. On 21 June 2013 he was supposed to sign with C.D.
