Medeama teen Kelvin Nkrumah earns Black Stars call-up for Japan and South Korea friendlies
Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has included Kelvin Nkrumah, the exciting teenage winger from Medeama SC, in his squad for the upcoming international friendlies against Japan and South Korea.
The 18-year-old has been rewarded for his standout performances in the 2025/26 Ghana Premier League, where his blistering pace, skillful dribbling, and fearless attacking style have made him one of the league’s brightest young talents.
The upcoming friendlies will provide Nkrumah with a platform to showcase his talents against two of Asia’s top teams while also offering Otto Addo an opportunity to assess his squad ahead of a busy international calendar next year.
At just 18, Nkrumah’s inclusion represents a significant milestone in his budding career and a proud moment for Medeama SC, a club increasingly recognized for producing top talent for the national team.
