Osikani TV can gladly confirm that Ibrahim Sulemana, a midfielder for Cagliari, has been called up to the Black Stars for the first time to play against Mali and the Central African Republic in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Ibrahim Sulemana joined Atalanta’s youth team from Sunyani in 2019 after doing well in a number of trials. He moved to Hellas Verona in 2021 after getting hurt badly and Atalanta no longer wanted to keep him on the team.
In the next year, the defensive midfielder moved up to the senior team and made his debut in October, when they lost 2-1 to Salernitana.
The 21-year-old moved from Verona to Cagliari in July 2023. He played in 14 Serie A games and scored two goals. On June 6, Ghana will play Mali, and on June 10, they will play the Central African Republic. Their three points from two games put them in fourth place.
Sulemana’s addition to the team shows that Otto Addo believes in young players, as shown by the chances he has given players like Forson Amankwah and Ibrahim Osman.
To get into the starting lineup, the young player will have to fight his way through because players like Abdul Salis Samed and Baba Iddrisu have recently played central midfield.
