Ghanaian born David Akologo gets maiden callup for Bolivia’s national team

The 27-year-old, who has been residing in Bolivia since 2020, was initially approached by the Bolivian Football Federation in August 2023.

Akologo meets the criteria for naturalization as outlined in Bolivia's nationality law, having lived continuously in the country for over three years.

Despite his Ghanaian heritage, Akologo has made a name for himself in Bolivian football, particularly with his standout performances for Club Deportivo Aurora.

His journey in football saw him represent the Ghana U20 team earlier in his career, showcasing his talent on the international stage.

Having previously played for Cochabamba FC and CD Enrique Happ, Akologo's skills as a goalkeeper have earned him a spot in the Bolivia national team squad.
