The 26-year-old, who scored a brace for Coventry City on Saturday October 4, 2025, has netted five times and made three assists in nine League games in the English Championship, coming in to replace Inaki Williams, who picked up an injury during Athletic Bilbao’s La Liga game against Mallorca on Saturday, ruling him out of this week’s qualifiers.
The 31-year-old Williams was named on Otto Addo’s 24-man squad for the qualifiers against the Central African Republic and Comoros.
The Black Stars are currently in Casablanca, Morocco, in readiness for the game against the Central African Republic on Wednesday, October 8, 2025.
Ghana will round up the qualifiers against Comoros at the Accra Sports Stadium on Sunday, October 12, 2025.
