Athletic Bilbao forward Inaki Williams has rejoined the Black Stars' camp as they prepare for the upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers against Angola and Niger.
Williams, who missed the team's previous gathering in June during the World Cup qualifiers, expressed his excitement about his return by commenting, "Happy to be back," on a post by the Ghana Football Association on X.

The 30-year-old had a successful season with Athletic Bilbao, winning the Copa del Rey alongside his brother, Nico Williams. Despite a strong performance last season, he has yet to find the back of the net in the current campaign after four matches.
Williams, who played in the 2022 FIFA World Cup and the 2023 AFCON, is expected to be a key player for Ghana as they face Angola on September 5 at the Baba Yara Stadium. The Black Stars will then take on Niger on September 9 in Morocco, chosen as a neutral venue by CAF due to Niger’s home ground issues.
