Maxwell Woledzi, the rising Ghanaian defender, has reiterated his long-standing desire to play for Ghana’s National Men’s Football Team, the Black Stars.
Speaking in an exclusive interview following his transfer from Norwegian side Fredrikstad FK to Major League Soccer’s Nashville SC, Woledzi said representing the Black Stars has been a dream since his days at Nordsjaelland. He stressed that he is focused on giving his best at club level to catch the attention of national team selectors.
“I’ve been wanting to play for the Black Stars for a long time. I just have to make sure that in my club I give my best and do what I have to do for the people in charge to see who I am,” Woledzi said.
The defender added that playing for the national team is not just a personal achievement but also a proud moment for his family.
The Black Stars are preparing for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, having been drawn in Group L alongside England, Croatia, and Panama, and Woledzi hopes to feature in the squad as Ghana aims to make a strong impact on the global stage.
