Latif Blessing ready to ditch Ghana over lack of call-ups

Published on: 16 September 2019

The 22-year-old is considering an international future elsewhere due to a lack of opportunity at the country of his birth

US-based Ghanaian attacker Latif Blessing has reiterated his desire to turn his back on Ghana at international level for being consistently snubbed over national call-ups.

The 22-year-old Los Angeles FC forward cleared his intentions last December, less than two years after moving to the US.

“If Ghana is not ready to give me a call-up, I will play for another country. I need to move forward as a player. If the United States calls me, I will say yes. I am working on getting my passport & documentation that will allow me to stay here and play.”

The former liberty forward is yet to have his debut for the Black Stars, his although he made it to Ghana's provisional squad for the Africa Cup of Nations in Gabon.
