2022 WCQ: Afena-Gyan ‘ready’ for Nigeria battle

AS Roma sensation, Felix Afena-Gyan is ready to represent Ghana as they face the Super Eagles of Nigeria in the 2022 Fifa World Cup playoffs.

This is the first time the 19-year-old forward is accepting a Black Stars call-up after three attempts.

Though his latest call-up is yet to be officially announced by the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Afena-Gyan subtly confirmed his well-rumoured acceptance in a Twitter post on Monday afternoon.

A picture of the player in a suspected Ghana-bound plane has also emerged.

Afena-Gyan has been impressive under José Mourinho and has made 17 first-team appearances for the Roma and has scored two goals in the process.

The Black Stars open camp on Monday to prepare for the March 25 and 29 home and away games with Nigeria to determine who qualifies for the 2022 Fifa World Cup in Qatar later this year.
