Derrick Arthur Köhn, a Ghanaian youngster who currently plays for the Germany U-19 national team, has expressed his eagerness to receive a call-up to the Ghana national team, also known as the Black Stars.
The talented defender, who was born in Germany, has been putting in impressive performances for Hannover 96 throughout the season, contributing to 10 goals so far.
“It would be an honor for me to be invited to join the Black Stars under the guidance of Chris Hughton, and I can confidently say that I am ready to represent Ghana,” Derrick Köhn stated in an interview with Accra-based Hot FM.
Derrick made the move to Hannover 96 from Bayern Munich in 2022, following a successful two-season loan spell with Wellim FC in Germany.
His consistent performances and contributions have caught the attention of Ghana’s national team selectors, and he is hopeful for an opportunity to showcase his skills on the international stage.
Köhn has scored five goals in the German Bundesliga 2 this season, and many clubs in the top-flight league are reportedly interested in signing him.
Recently, his coach Stefan Leitl praised Köhn, stating that he is the best left-back in the league. “For me, Derrick is the best left-back in the league. He demonstrated that impressively today,” the Hannover 96 manager said.
