English-born striker Antoine Semenyo earns debut Black Stars call-up ahead of Nigeria clash

English-born Ghanaian striker Antoine Semenyo is reported to have earned a call-up to the Black Stars ahead of the crucial 2022 Fifa World Cup playoff against Nigeria this month.

The hierarchy of the Ghana Football Association is believed to have had a successful discussion with the Bristol City attacker ahead of the all-important clash.

Semenyo, 22, has been in some scintillating form since December last year. His imperious form since December saw him win the Player of the month award in January in the English Championship.

According to a report filed by Kumasi-based Nhyira FM, Semenyo is set to earn his maiden call-up to the Black Stars ahead of the FIFA World Cup final eliminator.

The Black Stars are hoping to redeem their image following their shambolic display at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

Interim Black Stars coach Otto Addo is set to announce his squad in course of the week for the all-important clash with Nigeria.
