Strasbourg striker Waris not giving up on Ghana comeback after Afcon snub

Ghana forward Abdul Majeed Waris has targeted a return to national duty after almost a year on the sidelines.

The Strasbourg striker was undoubtedly the biggest casualty when then Ghana coach James Kwasi Appiah pruned down his provisional squad to 23 for the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) in Egypt last year.

He has since not returned to the team, even under new coach CK Akonnor, despite his form in the French Ligue 1.

“For me, I won’t say I have missed playing for the Black Stars," Waris told Adom TV.
