Fatawu Issahaku misses Kirin Cup

Fatawu was among several senior players who missed Ghana’s November friendlies in Asia, with reports suggesting he withdrew due to fatigue.

Jordan Ayew, Mohammed Kudus, Alexander Djiku and Thomas Partey also sat out the fixtures.

His presence at Tidal Rave, however, has sparked conversations among supporters who expected him to be with the national team.
