Novi Pazar left-back, Ebenezer Annan, has been handed a late debut call-up to the Black Stars ahead of friendlies against Nigeria and Uganda in late March, 3Sports understands.
The 21-year-old is set to replace Gideon Mensah who is expected to miss out on the friendlies due to fitness problems.
Annan moved from Ghana to Italy in 2020 where he joined Serie A side Bologna to continue his development. After one year in the Primavera squad, he was called up to the senior team, making his professional debut in a Copa Italia match against Ternana.
He was sent on a one-year loan to Serie D side Imolese in 2022 and currently plays on loan at Serbian SuperLiga club Novi Pazar in the 2023/24 campaign. The speedy full-back was voted the best left-back in first half of the current Serbian SuperLiga season.
Annan is expected to join the Black Stars camp early in the week after featuring in a league game against Vojvodina on Saturday.
