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.
The Williams brothers were born to Ghanaian parents who emigrated to the European nation over two decades ago.
