AS Roma youngster Felix Afena-Gyan makes his long awaited debut for the Black Stars on Friday evening against Nigeria.

The 19-year-old was given a starting role in the attack to help Ghana score and also give the Nigerian backline pressure.

Gyan had previously rejected two call-ups from Ghana due to sporting reasons.

Despite being called up for the Africa Cup of Nations following his spectacular rise at AS Roma, Felix Afena-Gyan did not compete. The striker has two goals in 14 games for the Serie A club.

Born in Sunyani, Ghana, Felix Afena-Gyan moved to Serie A side Roma’s youth team on 13 March 2021, from EurAfrica FC.
