Medeama SC striker Jonathan Sowah, who has impressed with his performances, is determined to make a significant impact as part of Ghana's national football team, the Black Stars.
He has earned a place in the squad for the critical 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualification match against the Central African Republic (CAR) under Coach Chris Hughton.
Sowah, the sole local player in the squad for the crucial CAR game, expressed his gratitude to Coach Didi Dramani and shared his dream of representing the senior national team, inspired by Asamoah Gyan.
Sowah's strong determination to succeed was evident in his statement, “I'm very happy for this call up into the Black Stars, many thanks to Coach Didi Dramani who taught me a lot at the Local Black Stars camp”
“It has always been my dream to play for the senior national team”
“I always look up to Asamoah Gyan that I will one day emulate what he did for Ghana. I thank God for granting my wish and all I need to do is to work hard, pray and fight for a chance”
“I am here to stay, even if I have to fight with the last drop of my blood, I will do it”
Sowah's remarkable performances at Medeama, where he scored 12 goals and played a key role in the team's Ghana Premier League title win, have propelled him into the national spotlight. He was also instrumental in Medeama's victory over Nigeria's Remo Stars in the CAF Champions League qualifiers.
Currently leading Group E of the qualifiers with nine points, Ghana faces competition from Angola, who have one point less. CAR, with seven points, is determined to secure a place in the prestigious competition.
