Inaki Williams has revealed that he could not let the opportunity of having an international career with Ghana just pass by despite playing for Spain in the past.
The Spanish-born Ghanaian had a short-lived career with La Roja before the Black Stars came calling.
The 28-year-old decided to play for Ghana and will be expected to make the team for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar later this year.
"Good players travel with their national team. I am 28 years old and this opportunity was not going to be given to me anymore," he told the press ahead of Athletic Club's league opener.
"I'm going to enjoy the moment, enjoy my roots and give back to Ghana for the opportunity it has given me.
"We appreciated that the next African Cups were played in the summer.
"I will represent the country of my parents, where I feel very loved.
"I need to give back the joy they have for me to go to the national team.
"I'm going to enjoy it sportingly and personally. The trip I made to Ghana helped me a lot to make the decision and I won't regret it."
