On Sunday, in the qualifier against Uganda, Aidoo came on in the second half time. Aidoo is also expected to play in the U-23 qualifiers for the Olympic games 2004 in Athens, Ghana against Liberia plays.

"We are in permanent contact to Lawrence and Ghana’s national trainer", says Borussias' sport director Christian. "He should play in any case. After that we see further. Perhaps he’ll be back on Thursday to Germany."
