Confirmed: Asante Kotoko striker receives Black Stars call-up ahead of the upcoming Unity Cup in London
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter
Asante Kotoko prolific striker, Kwame Opoku has received his second invitation into the senior national soccer team, the Black Stars of Ghana ahead of the upcoming Unity Cup in UK.

Poku, who earned his first national team call-up under Coach C.K Akunnor, has not featured for the Black Stars since 2021 after parting ways with the Porcupine Warriors.

However, his performance in the second round of the Ghana Premier League earned him another opportunity to demonstrate his striking prowess at the four-nation tournament, which includes Ghana, Nigeria, Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago.

Kwame Poku is now the fourth top scorer of the Ghana Premier League with nine goals to his name, having scored twice against Dreams FC last weekend.

His latest invitation means he could miss the remainder of Kotoko’s season in the Ghanaian top-flight, which comes as a big blow to Coach Abdul Karim Zito as they aim to win the GPL.

Ghana will come up against West African rivals, Nigeria, in a semifinal game on May 28 in the four-nation tournament, with the winner taking on Jamaica or Trinidad and Tobego in the finals on May 31 at the Gtech Community Stadium.

The team is expected to officially open camp on Sunday, May 25, in Accra. The upcoming games form part of Black Stars’ preparations for their upcoming game against Chad and Mali in the Matchday 7 and 8 games of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in September.
