Reports: Medeama Duo Kelvin Nkrumah and Prince Owusu to Earn Black Stars Call-Up for Asian Friendlies

Reports emerging from the local media indicate that Medeama SC duo Kelvin Nkrumah and Prince Owusu are set to be included in the Black Stars squad for the upcoming international friendlies against South Korea and Japan.

The two have been key figures for the defending Ghana Premier League champions this season, impressing with their consistency and form under coach IbrahimTanko.

Kelvin Nkrumah, the lively winger, has been a constant threat down the flanks for Medeama, using his pace, trickery, and eye for goal to torment defenders. His recent performances have caught the attention of national team scouts, making him one of the top local prospects in the league.

Prince Owusu, on the other hand, has bossed the midfield with his composure, vision, and ball-winning ability. The energetic midfielder has been at the heart of Medeama’s play, dictating tempo and linking defense to attack with ease. His calmness under pressure and tactical awareness have made him a vital asset for the Mauve and Yellow.

Sources close to the Black Stars technical team reveal that coach Otto Addo is considering rewarding the pair with call-ups as part of efforts to integrate top-performing home-based players into the national setup. The upcoming friendlies in Asia are expected to serve as an opportunity to assess new faces and expand Ghana’s player pool ahead of future qualifiers.

The Black Stars are scheduled to take on South Korea and Japan in back-to-back friendly matches during the international break, with the games to be played in Seoul and Tokyo respectively.

If confirmed, the invitation of Kelvin Nkrumah and Prince Owusu will underline Medeama SC’s growing reputation as one of Ghana’s most consistent talent-producing clubs.
