Kwabena Yeboah, President of Sports Writers Association of Ghana, has expressed his excitement about how the new players have settled into the Black Stars.

Athletic Bilbao forward, Inaki Williams, Tariq Lamptey, Salisu Mohammed, Stephan Ambrosius, Antoine Semenyo, and Ransford Yeboah Königsdörffer are all in the camp of the Black Stars ahead of the friendly games against Brazil and Nicaragua.

With the team set to take on Brazil on Friday, Kwabena Yeboah, who is at the camp of the team, says all players have settled in as if they have been part of the Black Stars for years.

“There is a saying that football is an international language. Although they appear now it’s as if they have been with this team for hundreds of years,” the veteran sports broadcaster told Joy Sports.
