Yaw Frimpong wants to play for Ghana at AFCON 2015

Ghana defender Yaw Frimpong has set an audacious target of making the country’s 2015 African Cup of Nations squad.

The 27-year-old, who plays for DR Congo giants TP Mazembe, earned a late call-up into the Black qualifiers against Uganda and Togo last week.


The former Kotoko right-back is determined to work his way into the team which qualifies for the continental showpiece in Morocco.


“I have been part of the squad a few times, especially for the last two games, but I am yet to kick a ball for the Black Stars in a match,” he said

“I will bide my time and I know that with hard work and patience, I will get to play for the Black Stars one day.


“That is a huge target of mine. I want to be part of the squad that goes to Morocco. I just need to continue working hard and playing for my club and I am sure that my chance will come.”


Frimpong has become a key member of the Ravens since he joined three years ago.
