After being
named in Ghana’s provisional 26 man squad, midfielder Ebenezer Afriyie Acquah
says he is ready to fight for a spot in Kwasi Appiah’s final 23 to Brazil.
The 22 year
old was named in Kwasi Appiah’s immediate 26 man squad on Monday following his excellent
performance with Parma in the Seria A after making 22 appearances for the
Italian side so far this season.
But Afriyie
Acquah in an interview with Accra based Happy FM indicated he will do
everything possible to make the final cut to the Global soccer fiesta in
Brazil.
“I went out
with my agent and after I came I received a call that I have been named. After
making the 26 man squad, I will do everything possible to be in the final 23
man squad to Brazil”, he said.
Meanwhile the
former Palermo midfielder says he is not disconcerted with the stiff
competition in the midfield department of the squad.
“I have
played with most of them before. And I even play with some of them here in
Italy. But the coach is only the person who can decide who to play or who not
to play. All I have to do is to work hard and try to impress the coach”, he added.
The former Berekum
Chelsea player faces stiff competition from the likes of Michael Essien,
Emmanuel Agyemang Badu, Rabiu Mohammed and Sulley Muntari in the central
midfield department.
