REPRESENTING GERMANY
Born in Bocholt, Germany, to a German father and a Ghanaian mother, he chose to represent Germany at international level. "Germany asked me at the age of 14 to play for their U15 national team and I didn't hear anything from Ghana until now [speaking in 2017]. Actually, I thought about it [playing for Ghana], maybe at the beginning, because I saw players like [Michael] Essien playing for Ghana and because they were like idols for me. But they [Ghana] never asked and I didn't think about it anymore. Then Germany asked me and why should I say no when this was the only offer I got. That's why I chose Germany. My mum wanted me to play for Ghana but I think she's not sad that I'm playing for Germany now. I think she's still happy." (goal.com, 17 Jul 2017)
