Ghana youngster Abdul Fatawu Issahaku has returned to first team training with Portuguese side Sporting CP Lisbon.
The young man has resumed training with the Green and Whites outfit as they prepare for the resumption of the league after the world cup.
Issahaku was with the Black Stars team that failed to make it out of the 2022 FIFA World Cup tournament group stages in Qatar.
He was a late substitute for the Black Stars in the last group game against Uruguay.
A 2-0 win for Uruguay in their Group H decider with Ghana prevented the Black Stars from enacting any sort of revenge for their quarter-final loss at the 2010 World Cup, but this pulsating victory for La Celeste at the 2022 edition came with a heavy price.
South Korea’s 2-1 win over Portugal in the corresponding group stage decider saw them leapfrog both Uruguay and Ghana late on, meaning they’ll progress to the last 16, and send both of these sides home despite Uruguay’s victory.
The build-up to the match had been dominated by Luis Suarez’s handball right at the end of extra-time in their 2010 knockout match. Asamoah Gyan’s miss proved fatal for Ghana 12 years ago, but captain Andre Ayew, the only remaining player from the 2010 squad, couldn’t avenge.
