Ghana international Kwadwo Asamoah is still available for national duty.

This is according to the Inter Milan defender-cum-midfielder’s father Emmanuel Asamoah, who discussed the player’s future with the Black Stars.

Kwadwo, 31, has been a noticeable absentee from the Ghana squads since playing at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals in Egypt.

“It doesn’t bother me [that Kwadwo has been absent from the national team since Afcon] because that’s how the game of football ensues,” Emmanuel Asamoah told Ashh FM.

“There’s a replacement for every single player so that’s how the job of football works. There are a lot of prospects on the horizon.

“He hasn’t retired from the Black Stars, if he receives a call-up he will honour it.”

Black Stars have a new coach in CK Akonnor, who replaced his Ghanaian compatriot Kwesi Appiah in January 2020.

Asamoah has represented his country 73 times at senior level and scored four goals.

He was part of the Ghana squad at the 2010 and 2014 FIFA World Cup finals.
