It was an easy decision to choose Ghana – Manchester City forward Antoine Semenyo

Ghana international Antoine Semenyo has described his decision to represent the Black Stars as straightforward, insisting he never had any real hesitation about his international future.

The forward earned his first call-up on May 26, 2022, before making his debut a few days later in a 3-0 win over Madagascar in a 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

Since then, he has become a regular feature in the squad, accumulating 34 caps and appearing at both the 2022 FIFA World Cup and the 2023 AFCON, where he has scored three international goals.

Speaking in an interview with ItsAllOutFooty, Semenyo said Ghana’s approach came at the right moment in his career and made the decision simple.

“No, I was never really in the England rankings like that anyway. Ghana came in 2021, and I can’t turn down playing first team for Ghana. So it was an easy decision,” he told ItsAllOutFooty.

The Bournemouth attacker is expected to play a central role as Ghana build towards the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico.

The Black Stars are aiming to reach the knockout stage of the tournament for the first time since 2010, with England, Croatia and Panama set to stand in their way.
