President of the Ghana Football Association, Kurt Okraku has delivered an update on the Black Stars’ pursuit of Callum Hudson-Odoi.

Kurt Okraku says the GFA is looking to have more engagements with the 20-year-old on the possibility of a nationality switch, among other matters beyond the field of play.

The winger is currently in Ghana for holiday, having gone ahead to meet President Akufo-Addo, Minister for Sports, Mustapha Ussif and Ghana Football Association President, Kurt Okraku, heightening speculation about an imminent switch.

Hudson-Odoi has featured three times for the Three Lions of England, the country of his birth.

“I mean I spoke with Callum before he got to Ghana, and we promised to speak again when we meet in Ghana,” Okraku told TV3.

“We have met, we’ve had discussions that centred beyond playing for Ghana, and he has a crazy ambition of helping kids in Ghana and this is what excites me the most.

“We are looking forward to working with Odoi and his family and many other players who are interested in representing their country.

“We have a lot of them like that, we are talking to the technical team and the political authorities in getting them to play for Ghana.”

By Fifa’s updated regulations on eligibility last September, the Champions League winner will be eligible to pledge the rest of his international future with Ghana in November next year, provided he does not add any more caps for The Three Lions.
