Very good suggestion, we wish him well in supporting GH to win the Afcon after 40 years of trying. For the WC it's late in the day for the 26 years old footballer seeking only to honour his dad.

Is he a world class player, will his inclusion in the Black Stars help lift up the strength of the stars, can he adopt to the style and culture of the team, does he have any connections to Ghana, can he play for Ghana without FIFA problems? If the answer to all the above is a yes, my friends get him onboard without wasting any time. Forget about what he will get from us. Whatever he will get from us, he is entitled to it as a Ghanaian with a Ghanaian name. Thank you!

The FA isn't also doing enough to help some of these players, making Ghanaians think all of them are opportunistic. I am sure there are a lot of these players who started their nationality switch before even the qualifies started but because Ghanaians were not enlighten about the process, they will attack them as opportunistic when they are invited into the national team. The same thing applies to Derrick Khon issue, imagine we had no idea of his switch and it is now that he is coming out to say, he is ready for Ghana. The FA should enlighten the public more and these things shouldn't be kept secret, it wont help those boys

Please calm down, you are getting all worked up! Whether you like it or not, any right thinking leader, coach, or Gfa leader who has Ghana at heart would support the idea of presenting a strong and formidable Black Stars at the world cup to make a very positive impact. Look, while we are appreciative of the hard work of our Stars in qualifying, the first step has been taken care of(qualification), the next step is to present a very strong team at the world cup. Look, if Morocco could make it to the semis, why can't we make it to the finals? I believe we can find Ghanaians with the right talent to achieve this goal. We need to strengthen parts of our defense to stop the Haalands and the Mbappes at the tournament. We need very sharp and accurate strikers like the Asamoah Gyans and the Mbappes. Our midfield is shaping up ok. If we can get a keeper who can be in the shape of Olele or better, that would be fantastic! Our set pieces are getting there, we need some sharp angle shooters for the team. As for our gallant Ghanaians who helped to qualify the Stars but who are not able to make the final list, we should compensate them adequately as a thank you. Let's add a sharp tactician to our coach to assist Otto Addo. This time, we should go in, aiming for the cup itself, why not? What other human beings can do, Ghanaians have the ability to do it too, if not better!
