Ghana striker, Inaki Williams has pulled out of the Black Stars squad for the clash against Madagascar in the qualifiers for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament.
In an official statement on Monday, June 5, he said he is inured and wants to address the problem to be able to get back to his best for the next football season.
“Since a few weeks I’ve been playing with pain in my right knee. I decided to play until the end of the season, but after having spoken to the medical services, we’ve decided to stop and solve the problem to be 100% for the preseason,” Inaki Williams said in his statement.
The striker wants Ghanaians to trust that he is committed to the Black Stars and will honour the next call-up when he is fit again.
“This wasn’t an easy decision to make because I won’t be able to be with my national team, Ghana the next meeting.
“I want to say that I am fully committed and I will come back with the Black Stars if the coach deems it appropriate next calls. Thank you for your support,” Inaki Williams added.
The match between Madagascar and Ghana will be played on Sunday, June 18.
