During the 2016 Ghana Premier League, he served as captain and played in 26 league matches but could not prevent Sekondi Hasaacas from being relegated to the Ghana Division One League. As a standout performer within the season, he was linked with transfers to Medeama SC and Bechem United after his contract with Sekondi expired.

In April 2018, after a poor start to the season, Egyin admitted that the departure of several first team players like striker Ahmed Toure and captain Asante Agyemang had affected their outfit but the club remained optimistic of surviving. In the 2018 Ghana Premier League season, he played in 14 league matches and scored 2 goals out of 15 matches before the league was abandoned due to the dissolution of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) in June 2018, as a result of the Anas Number 12 Expose.

During the 2019–20 Ghana Premier League season, he played in all 15 league matches before the league was cancelled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
