Midfielder Edmund Addo expresses his joy at being back in the Ghana squad during the March international break, marking a return to representing his country after missing out on the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations squad.
Addo, acknowledges the disappointment of not being selected for AFCON 2023 due to limited playing time at club level.
However, his recent involvement and performances have justified his inclusion in the national team, culminating in appearances in the friendly matches against Nigeria and Uganda.
Reflecting on his return, Addo shares, “Honestly my joy is not about returning to the Black Stars but rather wearing the national colours and representing my motherland has always been amazing and emotional for me.”
While disappointed about missing out on AFCON, Addo emphasizes his support for his teammates who participated in the tournament, understanding the competitive nature of football at the international level.
“Not making it to the African Cup of Nations was a bit disappointing for me because you know almost every player would love to play in the Nations Cup, World Cup, Champions League etc. But all being good I was happy for my colleagues who made it and I supported them massively.”
