According to him, the call-up for the World Cup is not only big for him but his parents and the entire family who are happy for him.
“It hasn’t sunk in yet. It feels so real. I received a call on Monday saying that I have been selected, I was rolling around in the house, and I was excited.
“My family is just excited as I am, my mom was crying, and my dad was crying, so it was big for them just like it is for me,” Antoine Semenyo shared.

The forward is one of the attackers in Ghana’s final squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup tournament to be staged in Qatar later this month.
He must train hard in the next week to convince Ghana head coach Otto Addo that he deserves to start at the world cup.
Antoine Semenyo, 23, is likely to be given a chance to play for the Black Stars in the friendly match against Switzerland on Thursday.
