Inaki Williams needs time to excel in Black Stars - Derek Boateng

Published on: 31 March 2023

Former Ghana international Derek Boateng believes misfiring Inaki Williams will need time to settle in the Black Stars team.

Williams, who plays for Athletic Bilbao, is yet to score his first goal for the Black Stars after seven matches in the Ghana jersey and Ghanaians are gradually losing faith in him.

The 28-year-old featured in both legs when Ghana played Angola in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers but was unable to find the back of the net.

“I think Inaki Williams and other players who switched nationality don’t really understand Africa, they don’t know what is going on here, our style and others. So, I think Inaki needs time but ask yourself if we can be patience with him”

“To me, we shouldn’t depend of those kind of players because they don’t understand our style” he said.

Ghana will return to action in June to take on Central Africa Republic and Madagascar and Inaki Williams will hope to end his goal drought.

He has returned to Athletic Bilbao after the international break and is expected to be action for his outfit this weekend.
