"It's not that I got tired of waiting for a call from Spain. A chance to play with Ghana opened up for me. The president came to Bilbao to meet with me and my family, to play in a World Cup and even so it wasn't something I had at all Of course. The first few times I said no. I didn't make the decision until I traveled to Ghana and traveled with my grandparents. My grandfather made me change my mind. My grandfather's dream was to see his grandson play with Ghana," he explains.
