France-based Ghanaian midfielder, Abdul Samed Salis has been handed a maiden call-up to the Black Stars ahead of the 2022 World Cup by the head coach of the side, Otto Addo.
Salis, who has been impressive with French Ligue 1 side, RC Lens has been constantly overlooked by the technical handlers of the team.
However, with less than two months to the start of the Mundial, the 22-year-old speaking in an interview revealed that Otto Addo has assured him of a slot in the Black Stars provisional squad.
“The coach sent me a message this (Saturday) morning, he said to me; You are going to be on the list,” Salis said.
“Everyone’s dream is to be at the World Cup and that is my dream too. I want to be in the final 26,” he added.
Salis has made 11 appearances for RC Lens in the French top-tier league with a goal to his credit.
Ghana coach Otto Addo is expected to announce a 30-man provisional squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup later this month.
The four-time Africa Cup of Nations champions have been paired with Portugal, Uruguay, and South Korea in the Group H of the World Cup.
