GFA convincing Barcelona’s Jesse Bisiwu to snub Belgium for Ghana

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) is in contact with FC Barcelona winger Jesse Bisiwu's camp to convince him to play for the Black Stars.

According to reports, the GFA has been engaging both the player and his representatives for months, trying to persuade him to commit to the national team.

Sources indicate that the association is considering calling him up to the Black Stars squad as soon as possible. Bisiwu has previously played for Belgium’s U17 side but remains eligible to represent Ghana through his parents.

The Belgian Football Association is reportedly aware of the situation and is monitoring it, though no official communication has been made yet.

The winger has been in blistering form for the Catalans, impressing in the matches he has featured in so far. The GFA believes his addition will significantly bolster the Black Stars in their quest to secure qualification for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) and ultimately compete for the title.
