The Bristol City attacker, who made his Ghana debut in a 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Madagascar in June, is one of the attacking options for Coach Otto Addo.

The Black Stars are preparing to take on Brazil in an international friendly game on Friday as part of the preparations for the upcoming 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

“I am happy obviously being with the team again. I went back, unfortunately, because of an injury but it’s good to be back. I am ready to show Ghanaians what I can do so I am ready to go,” he told ghanafa.org

“I am carrying that firing edge so when I get a chance I know I will score and make the country proud so I am just waiting for my opportunity again.

“We have got some newsboys in with us, all of us can gell together, get used to how we play, come together as a group and perform on a big stage so everyone is in good spirit, everyone is with good vibes so we are all raring to go so we can’t wait.
