3Sports reports that the skilful winger has since completed a nationality switch to make him eligible to represent Ghana.
âThe motivation behind this decision is that I deem it an obligation to play for my mother country since my parents are Ghanaian,â the player is quoted as saying in a letter.
Amuzuâs decision to play for Ghana marks a dramatic U-turn from his earlier stance that he only has eyes for Belgium.

In a 2022 interview with Het Nieuwsblad, he said: âThey call my agent every day, but I keep it off. Look, I was born in Ghana and when Iâm there, I feel at home there because of the African atmosphere.
"My sporty heart lies with Belgium. With Belgium you can go very far at such a World Cup, with Ghana there is a real chance that you will be out quickly.
âI have a career plan and weâll see. I had hoped that I would already have more playing minutes at Anderlecht, but then I also have to show myself,â the Anderlecht winger added.
It remains to be seen whether the next Black Stars coach will fancy Amuzu as an addition to his squad.
