“Growing up, I was a huge fan of Kevin-Prince Boateng. I really admired him as a kid,” Owusu told Flashscore. André Ayew is also a big figure, especially for those of us from France. Getting the chance to play with him in the national team has been a tremendous honour for me,” he added.
Owusu is expected to be part of the Black Stars squad for the upcoming doubleheader against Sudan in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers next month.
