Baba Rahman plays for PAOK
Ghanaian defender, Baba Rahman, has been dominating conversations on social media ahead of the Black Stars‘ game against Nigeria.
The Black Stars will face Nigeria in the 2025 Unity Cup in London on May 28, 2025.
Ahead of the release of the squad, there were reports that Rahman had been invited as part of the team and had even arrived in London to partake in training.
Some Ghanaian football fans were stunned by the news, as the player had decided to stay away from the team some time ago when he was needed to aid the team in the 2025 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
Others also accused him of making himself available at a time when the Black Stars are on the brink of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup and using the opportunity to revive his career.
There are those who wished him the best upon his return to the team and hoped he would excel to avoid the criticisms he faced previously, which compelled him to excuse himself for some time.
However, the reports turned out to be false, as the player was not included in the official squad released by head coach Otto Addo for the match.
In the 2024/2025 season, Rahman made 46 appearances, scoring 8 goals and providing 4 assists for PAOK.
