The Ghana Football Federation received positive news as AC Milan midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng has expressed his desire to rejoin the Black Stars after a two-year absence. The federation welcomed this decision, expressing confidence that Boateng’s return would bring revitalization to the Black Stars for the upcoming rounds.
In a press release, the federation stated, “Your decision to return to service will surely revitalize the Black Stars for the next rounds.”
There is anticipation that Kevin-Prince Boateng could be included in the lineup for the match against Zambia on September 6, a crucial game in the last day of the group stage qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup. Some observers in Ghanaian football, however, are cautious about Boateng’s decision, suggesting that he might be aware that a draw in the match against Zambia would be sufficient for the Black Stars to lead in Group D.
Kevin-Prince Boateng had distanced himself from the national team after the 2010 World Cup, citing the exhausting nature of the team’s travels and a preference to focus on his club activities. The Ayew brothers are also eagerly awaited, but they have been slow to join the national team.
