Juventus agree to release Boakye for Ghana friendly

Published on: 19 July 2012

Italian champions Juventus will permit new recruit Richmond Boakye-Yiadom to play for Ghana next month in an international friendly. 

The 18-year-old has been invited for the August 15 exhibition match against China likely to be played in Beijing.

This will be his first-time call-up into the Black Stars after recent impressive performances.

Boakye-Yiadom raked in 12 goals in all competitions for Serie B side Sassuolo who reached the semi-final of promotional play-off.

He was signed for Juventus this month in a co-ownership deal from Genoa and scored on his debut on Tuesday in a 7-1 pre-season win over local outfit Aygreville.
