Jordan Amissah, a Ghanaian goalkeeper born in Germany, has stated that playing for Ghana’s national side, the Black Stars, is ‘non-negotiable’.
The Sheffield United youngster, who is on loan at Burton Albion in English League Two, was born in Germany but is of Ghanaian origin.
There were uncertainties about which nation he would represent at the international level, but Amissah has come out to clarify his international allegiance.
In an interview with The I&O Podcast, he stated that he cannot wait to play for Ghana and that he will be the proudest person on the planet when he wears the Ghana jersey with the black star on it.
The goalkeeper, according to earlier reports, is set to be called up to the Black Meteors squad for the 2023 U23 Africa Cup of Nations to be staged in Morocco next month.
“Playing for Ghana is non-negotiable. A lot of people asked me, ‘Do you want to play for Germany or Ghana?’ But playing for Ghana, when that day happens, you know, happy days,” Amissah said.
“I’ve got the black star on my chest, and I’m a happy man.”
