Hudson-Odoi and Nketiah have both been capped by England, but can still make the switch to Ghana through family ties.

Ghana’s Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, said on local radio station Asempa FM: “Every Ghanaian who knows how to play has the opportunity to go to the World Cup if the coach decides that he wants.

“It doesn’t matter if the player was part of the team during the qualifiers or not. It doesn’t matter if the player has played before or not.

“Maybe they were looking elsewhere, but we will not discriminate on the day the player played during the qualifiers or not.

“I have watched some players, and I believe that they are good enough.

“Despite their talent, the final selection of players like Eddie Nketiah and Hudson-Odoi remains with the technical team and the coach.”
