"I'm one of the Black Stars" - Inaki Williams switches nationality to Ghana

Athletic Bilbao striker, Inaki Williams has finally made the decision to represent the Black Stars of Ghana in international football.

‘Ghanaian players deserve Black Stars call-up more than me’ – Inaki Williams

The Spanish born player revealed this long-awaited decision in a video he shared on social media today.

He said: “Today a new challenge begins. From now on, I will defend Ghana’s T-Shirt with all my will whilst I give my best. I am one of the Black Stars.”

Inaki and his younger brother Nico Williams visited Ghana last month to reconnect with their roots amidst nationality switch rumors.

The brothers visited their traditional home, where they fraternised with some members of their extended family.
