Tears of joy: Kwadwo Amoako reveals mother’s moment after debut Ghana call-up

The right full-back is among four local players for March's Afcon qualifying matches.

AshantiGold defender Kwadwo Amoako will be donning the Black Stars when the senior national team lines up for the 2021 Afcon qualifying games against Sudan.

For new members of the senior national team, it is worthy to find their family share ecstasy when their beloved sons get call-ups to represent their motherland. Kwadwo is no different!

The Miners stalwart, in an interview with Ashh FM, has revealed what he encountered after informing his mother of the glamorous chance awarded her son.

“We (AshantiGold) had finished training so I came home to rest. I then heard my name on the radio as the presenter mentioned the Black Stars squad for the Sudan game so I didn’t panic.

“My teammates came to my place with congratulatory messages.”

“When I called my mum, she was happy but also crying and advised me to work hard as she backs me in prayers”.
Amoako concluded by focusing on the national team task ahead.

“Every player’s wish is to play for the senior national team and I believed in myself too. I thank God for this opportunity and will make use of this moment.

Yahaya Mohammed, Richard Attah and Habib Mohammed are the other home-based players in the 23-man squad.

Ghana will first be hosting Sudan at Cape Coast Stadium on March 27 before travelling to Omdurman for the reverse fixture three days after.
