Athletic Bilbao forward Inaki Williams has been named in Ghana’s squad for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers, marking his return after missing the previous matches against Mali and the Central African Republic due to foot surgery.
Williams’ absence was noticeable during those games, though Ghana managed to secure victories without him. Now fully recovered, Williams has been in impressive form for his club, demonstrating his attacking prowess and agility.
His return is seen as a significant boost for the Black Stars, with his experience and direct playing style expected to enhance Ghana’s attacking options. Since making his debut for Ghana in 2022, Williams has scored once for the national team, and he will be eager to add to his tally in the upcoming qualifiers.
Ghana is set to face Angola at home on September 5, 2024, before traveling to Niger for their second Group F match on September 9, 2024. Williams’ presence is expected to provide a valuable edge as Ghana aims to kick off their AFCON campaign on a strong note.
