Felix Afena Gyan, a striker from Ghana, came off the bench to play 28 minutes for his club, U.S. Cremonese, during their heartbreaking 3-2 loss to Palermo in the Italian Serie B round of 19.
The forward was a key member of Otoo Adoo’s squad that bravely defeated Nigeria to earn Ghana a spot in the World Cup.
He announced his intention to stop playing for the Black Stars or Ghana National Team after he was demoted to play for the Ghana U-23 team.
However, the Cremonese striker explained that he has not quit the national team, rather he has put his international career on hold. The 20-year-old also stated that reports suggesting he has quit playing for Ghana are false.
U.S. Cremonese are 6th on the league table with 32 points after 19 matches, which is the promotion qualification zone. He was rated 6.5.
