Ghana coach Rajevac reveals reason for big Issahaku call in 2022 World Cup qualifier against Zimbabw

The Black Stars supervisor opens up in his group determination for the matchday three experience with The Warriors. 


New Ghana mentor Milovan Rajevac has disclosed his choice to hand 17-year-old sensation Abdul Fatawu Issahaku a beginning in their 2022 World Cup qualifying home apparatus against Zimbabwe recently. 


Uncapped before the game, the Liverpool and Sporting Club-connected aggressor was unarguably the greatest astonishment as Rajevac uncovered his beginning XI for the matchday three apparatus in Cape Coast. 


The player, who acts in the Ghana second-level association for Steadfast and amazed at the Africa U20 Cup of Nations competition as a 16-year-old recently, had been called up to back to back Ghana camps under previous mentor CK Akonnor yet never found the opportunity to play. 


"He [Issahaku] suggested himself with his presentation for the U20 group and when he went to the camp, he substantiated himself at the instructional meetings and the preparation match," Rajevac said on Monday. 


"He showed me he needs to find the opportunity and I am very happy with the way. 


"He is creating and he is a lovely ability and a player with an extraordinary future in proficient football." 


Issahaku's presentation is no question a sign that Rajevac will project his net more extensive to offer freedoms to new players at the Black Stars. 


The Serbian mentor is on a second spell with Ghana, having driven the Stars to the last of the 2009 African Nations Championship, the last of the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations and the quarter-last of the 2010 World Cup. 


"Certainly, on the off chance that you take a gander at my past spell here, you'll realize it is significant each division of the group is solid as could be expected, so for the following time frame, we are observing each Ghanaian home and abroad," said the 67-year-old. 


"The [Ghana Premier] association will begin soon, so certainly there will be a few gifts from here and players abroad attempting to substantiate themselves, so it is an opportunity for everyone to substantiate themselves and in the event that they will come to play for Ghana, they need to demonstrate it. 


"This is a cycle you're attempting to set up the group who can be cutthroat at the most elevated level and can play against any group on the planet." 


Issahaku endured an hour on his introduction against Zimbabwe.
