Yahaya Mohammed was invited to the Black Stars for Ghana’s doubleheader against Sudan in the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in what was CK Akonnor’s first call-up as the Black Stars coach in March 2020, but the games were postponed as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

But he has been excluded from Ghana’s call for the friendly against Mali.

Yahaya Mohammed, who was the second top scorer in Ghana’s Premier League before it was canceled, says he would have turned down an invitation to play Mali if he had been given a call-up because he is out of shape.

“I’m not surprised by my exclusion from the @ghanafaofficial Black Stars call-up. I would have dared to tell @akonnor_ck that I can’t be part of the team if they called me. The reason is simple, I’ve been off the court for some time and I lack of aptitude for the game, “he told Angel FM, from Kumasi.

No local players entered the squad due to the coronavirus-induced absence of football in Ghana for the past six months.
