Genoa forward Kelvin Yeboah has disclosed that he will be supporting the Black Stars at the 2022 FIFA World Cup after the Azzurri of Italy failed to secure a ticket.

Yeboah turned down an invitation to play for Ghana after accepting a call-up from the Italian U21 side last year.

 
However, it's also worth remembering that he's still eligible to represent Ghana at senior level. 
 
And whereas Italy failed to qualify for this year's World Cup, the Black Stars booked their place in Qatar by upsetting Nigeria in the play-offs.
 
He could soon have a difficult choice to make.
 
Unsurprisingly for such a well-travelled young man, Yeboah is reluctant to be drawn on where his long-term future lies, but he will admit that he'll be supporting Ghana at the World Cup no matter what happens.
 
"I grew up in Italy, so it's part of me," he told GOAL, "but so is Ghana.
 
"Italy and Ghana are both my country, I suppose, and nobody knows what will happen in the future."
 
Yeboah has featured four times for the Italy U21 team and he is still eligible to play for Ghana in future.
