For KRC Genk winger Christopher Baah Bonsu, earning his maiden call-up to the Black Stars was nothing short of a dream come true.

The young Ghanaian attacker was part of coach Otto Addo’s 23-man squad that competed in the recently concluded Unity Cup tournament in the United Kingdom. Ghana secured third place in the four-nation event, finishing with an emphatic 4-0 win over Trinidad and Tobago in the third-place playoff.

Though he didn’t score during the matches against Nigeria and Trinidad and Tobago, Bonsu stood out with his dynamic presence on the field, providing much-needed creativity and flair in attack. His impressive showing has not gone unnoticed, with many already touting him as a key option for Ghana’s future fixtures.

Speaking in an interview with Kumasi-based Angel FM, the 21-year-old couldn’t hide his joy at the opportunity to don the famous Ghana jersey.

“It was a great feeling getting called up into the national team. The call-up means a lot to me as a young player. Ghana is blessed with so many talents, so to make the recent squad means I am doing something good,” he said.

Bonsu’s performances at the Unity Cup may well have cemented his place in the Black Stars setup. With the 2026 World Cup qualifiers resuming soon, fans could see the exciting winger feature once again in Ghana’s colors.
