Goalkeeper Frederick Asare of Asante Kotoko has stated that he wants to return Black Stars head coach Otto Addo’s trust.
After being called up to the Black Stars squad for the forthcoming 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Asare expressed his thanks and delight to the Kotoko media in an interview.
On June 6 and June 10, respectively, Ghana will play the Central African Republic at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi, and Mali in Bamako.
Asare is the only Ghana Premier League player named in the 26-man squad for the qualifiers, and the former Accra Lions player is eager to prove himself.
“We have good goalkeepers. For me to be called to the national team and also his compliments to me is a great achievement to me and I’m truly happy.”
“For me to represent my country, it’s a dream come true. Going forward, I also have to do my best and repay the coach’s trust in me,” Asare said.
This season, Asare has made 17 league appearances for the Porcupine Warriors, having won the starting spot from veteran Danlad Ibrahim.
