Otto Addo, the coach of Ghana’s national football team, the Black Stars, has dismissed recent reports suggesting that Nottingham Forest winger Callum Hudson-Odoi has been invited to join the squad.

However, Addo remains open to the inclusion of more foreign-based players in the team.

In an interview with 3Sports, Addo clarified, “So far not yet. Also heard people saying this (Hudson-Odoi being invited). To me, nobody came to me so far but we are open for everyone who wants to join. If somebody wants to join, a special player like him, we are always open.”

Callum James Hudson-Odoi, born in Wandsworth, Greater London, is the son of former Ghanaian midfielder Bismark Odoi. His potential inclusion in the Black Stars has been a topic of speculation, but Addo’s statement confirms that no official approach has been made yet.

Addo, who recently led Ghana to victory in two crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Mali and the Central African Republic, is currently in his second stint as the Black Stars’ coach. His primary task is to secure Ghana’s qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will be hosted by Canada, Mexico, and the USA.
