On 31 January 2022, Sowah was loaned to AZ Alkmaar in Dutch Eredivisie until the end of the season.

In the 2022–23 season Sowah returned to Club Brugge. On 13 September 2022, he scored his first goal for the club, in a 4–0 away win at FC Porto in the UEFA Champions League. On 4 October, Sowah scored again in the competition, in a 2–0 home win over Atlético Madrid.
