Nico Williams has revealed what it means for his big brother, Inaki Williams to play for Ghana at the 2022 FIFA World Cup tournament in Qatar.
The young man says his brother is very happy to represent as he snubbed Spain at the last minute to don the famous Black Stars jersey despite being born in Spain.
According to the Athletic Bilbao young forward, his big brother is very happy to have chosen Ghana ahead of Spain after playing at the 2022 FIFA World Cup tournament in Qatar.
The youngster also revealed that he chose Spain ahead of his parents country because he wanted to play for the European side.
Nico Williams: “Iñaki told me that if we reach the final, he will be here. My brother is very happy to represent Ghana and I was very clear that I wanted to be with Spain.”
Inaki Williams started all three group games for Ghana at the World Cup for Ghana and only got substituted in the last group game against Uruguay at Al Janoub Stadium in Al Wakrah.
Williams failed to hit the back of the net for his country at the 2022 FIFA World Cup tournament in Qatar as Ghana got eliminated at the group stages of the competition.
Nico Williams also suffered elimination from the 2022 FIFA World Cup tournament in the hands of Morocco on Tuesday evening.
A 2-0 win for Uruguay in their Group H decider with Ghana prevented the Black Stars from enacting any sort of revenge for their quarter-final loss at the 2010 World Cup, but this pulsating victory for La Celeste at the 2022 edition came with a heavy price.
South Korea’s 2-1 win over Portugal in the corresponding group stage decider saw them leapfrog both Uruguay and Ghana late on, meaning they’ll progress to the last 16, and send both of these sides home despite Uruguay’s victory.
The build-up to the match had been dominated by Luis Suarez’s handball right at the end of extra-time in their 2010 knockout match. Asamoah Gyan’s miss proved fatal for Ghana 12 years ago, but captain Andre Ayew, the only remaining player from the 2010 squad, couldn’t avenge.
