Italy-based forward Emmanuel Gyasi has finally been handed his debut call-up to the Ghana squad for this month’s 2021 Cup of Nations qualifier matches against South Africa and Sao Tome, SPORTSworldGhana.com can report exclusively.
The Spezia Calcio striker, SPORTSworldGhana.com sources in Italy indicate, is among the foreign-based players invited by coach Charles Kwablan Akonnor for the two matches.
The call-up serves as a boost for the 27-year-old who has been outstanding for the Serie A debutants this season.
Gyasi who played his 100th game for the club against Juventus last week has finally been invited by the technical handlers of the Black Stars team as a result of his outstanding performance in the Italian Serie A this campaign.
The Italy-born winger joined the club from Pistoiese having spent his formative days as a footballer at Torino.
Last season, he established himself as a star for Spezia Calcio in the Italian Serie B as they made history to qualify to the Serie A for the first time since the club was formed.
Gyasi has climbed to 81st on the list of players with the most appearances for Spezia.
He has so far this season scored five goals and provided four assists for Spezia Calcio in all competitions.
