The 24-year-old left back sealed the move to the Greek Super League side last Friday.
Agbenyenu received the news of the passing of his son few hours after completing his transfer to Aris.
The cause of his son’s death is unknown at the moment.
Agbenyenu joined FC Porto from Ghanaian side Wassaman United FC when he was 18 in 2014.
In Porto II and Portimonense he made excellent appearances, making his name known in European football.
After passing through Munich 1860 in Germany, Sporting Lisbon signed him in January 2018 where the Ghanaian international recorded 25 appearances in the Portuguese league.
After two loan spells at Turkish side Goztepe and Spanish La Liga outfit Real Mallorca, he has moved to Greece to continue his career.
Agbenyenu has 13 caps for Ghana since making his debut in June 2017.
The 27-year-old looks to be back in favour at Chelsea and made the team that travelled to the Emirates ahead of Marcos Alonso, who was left out entirely.
German forward Kai Havertz gave the European Champions the lead before want-away Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka headed home an equalizer in the second half.
Rahman who had made a mess of an earlier chance redeemed himself when he pressed Hector Bellerin into a mistake that fell kindly into the waiting feet of Tammy Abraham to restore Chelsea’s lead.
The Ghanaian then showed his strength by shoving off Nicolas Pepe, moments after the goal in what is evidence of his growing upper body strength and confidence even though the referee called it to be an infringement on the part of the Ghanaian.
This was Rahman’s second game in five days, following on from his impressive cameo against Bournemouth where he produced a beautiful assist for Chelsea’s first goal of the game.
There is still no guarantee that the former Asante Kotoko man will remain at the club when the season starts but he is not short of suitors with Augsburg, Olympiacos and Torino all waiting in the wings for his signature.
Rahman was signed by Chelsea in 2015 and even though he made 13 league starts in his first season, he’s failed to progress in East London, spending most of his time out on loan in Germany, Spain, France and recently Greece.
There has been talks of a potential permanent move away from Stanford Bridge this summer as there is a feeling that this will be in the best interest of both parties with the player having failed to establish himself in the first team, but that will largely depend on if Chelsea decides to keep both Marcos Alonso and European winner Emerson Palmieri.
The Phobians will now face AshantiGold – who beat Berekum Chelsea 4-1 early on- in the final.
With the opener on 12 minutes, midfielder Benjamin Afutu Kotey applied a blistering header to a cross from Isaac Mensah.
Mensah later turned scorer- aided by poor goalkeeping- to double their lead and Daniel Barnieh scored from the spot to seal the win.
Richard Attah made his first save of the match in the 24th minute when Medeama captain Joseph Tetteh Zutah fired a feeble shot at goal.
Two minutes in the second half, Isaac Mensah’s attempt from just outside the box was blocked by stalwart defender Vincent Atingah.
The second stanza was tight and compact but Medeama looked exhilarating with their passing game.
Kwadwo Asamoah produced a half volley from outside the penalty arc but it was mis-directed at goal and so Hearts survived another scare.

Medeama’s embroidery was nice but they lacked the cutting despite bombarding the area of the Phobians with aerial balls.
In one of those moments, Amed Toure was clattered in from behind in the box when he jumped to chest down across. The ball rolled
Just before the hour mark, Hearts doubled their lead thanks to a goalkeeping howler by Frank Boateng.
The Medeama No.1 ended up failing to clear an innocuous ball at the back after it bounced on the turf and veered pass him onto the path of Mensah who had the easiest task of rolling the ball into a gaping net.
Medeama tried to pull one back when Kwadwo Asamoah was given all the time in the world to try shot from distance- this left Hearts goalie Attah yelling at his players.
Shortly afterwards, Hearts of Oak were awarded a penalty when Boateng brought down Daniel Barnieh.
The spot kick had to be taken twice after the first one was stopped by Boateng but he was offline so it had to be retaken.
Barnieh kept his composure and this time sent the goalkeeper the wrong way to make it three-nil.
With a quarter of an hour left to play, Eric Kwakwa had a decent chance to pull one back for the Tarkwa-based side but from close range, he shot feebly into the hands of Attah.
There was a late flurry from Hearts of Oak but Medeama stood firm and repelled all that including a super save from goalkeeper Boateng to stop a missile from Barnieh.
In added on time, Toure shockingly failed to hit target from close range after a decent cross came in from the left flank.
A pair of goals in the first half of extra-time gave he Miners the upper hand after the first half goal was cancelled out by substitute Stephen Sarfo in regulation.
Three minutes to full time, Seth Osei slotted home from close range to seal that big win for the Miners.
But Berekum Chelsea were a decent side and it was striker Kofi Owusu who fired the first warning shot.
He took a bold attempt from the centre circle after spotting goalkeeper Kofi Mensah was off his line but his long range ball went off the line.
After the first quarter, AshantiGold won a free-kick on the left flank which was whipped in but captain Richard Osei Agyemang’s header went over the bar
Berekum Chelsea worked their way into the box with a lovely move but a cross onto the head of Atta-Adjei was wide at the far post.
The Blues came close again but brave goalkeeping save AshGold from conceding .
AshGold came under pressure after a header from Empem Dacosta to cut out a free-kick came off the side post before Kofi Owusu’s shot at goal was palmed out by Kofi Mensh on the line.
On the half hour mark, winger Isaac Opoku Agyeman weaved his way on the flank into the box but Stepen Anokye Badu produced a sliding tackle to stop him from pulling the trigger.
In injury time of the first half, AshantiGold jumped into the lead courtesy a superb free-kick from Eric Esso.
The midfielder produced a beautiful curler which zoomed over the wall into the roof with goalkeeper Sammy Adjei completely beaten.
Six minutes into the second half, substitute Stephen Sarfo leveled for Berekum Chelsea.
He controlled a cross from the right inside the box with his chest before slotting past goalkeeper Mensah.
A glorious opportunity fell to Kofi Owusu to double Chelsea’s lead but he mis-kicked a knocked down ball from Stephen Amankona.
Amankona nearly put Chelsea ahead on 77 minutes but his low shot was superbly saved by Kofi Mensah.
It was a lovely move from Chelsea after some sleek passing play.
Esso tried his luck with a free-kick in the 88th minute but this time his effort was a skied one.
Two minutes into extra-time, Amos Nkrumah powerfully struck a rocket into the roof of the net from 25 yards.
Minutes, Chelsea were reduced to ten men when Benjamin Baidoo was sent off after receiving a second yellow card following a push on Mark Agyekum on the flank.
In added on time of the first half of extra-time, Amos Addai -left unmarked-was released on the right side and he went at goal before dribbling past goalkeeper Adjei to fire home the third.
Monaco have also agreed personal terms with Boadu’s agent Mino Railo after an initial misunderstanding which nearly resulted in the club walking away.
According to the trusted Fabrizio Romano, Boadu’s transfer will be made official by Monaco after the striker completes medicals and paperwork during the weekend.

The Netherlands international of Ghanaian descent spent seven years at AZ. He joined AZ academy at 13 years old and Boadu progressed through the ranks with the Dutch club before making his first-team debut in May 2018.
The young forward started the following season in excellent form, scoring three and assisting two in AZ’s first five games, however, an ankle injury ruled him out for the vast majority of the remainder of the campaign.
A fine 2019/20 season came next, with Boadu netting 20 goals in all competitions. Last year was equally as fruitful for the promising forward. The 20-year-old netted 15 times in 31 Eredivisie games.
Unfortunately, he did not make Netherlands squad that crashed out of the Euros at the last 16 stage.
