[QUOTE="Latest Football News, Live Scores, Results -, post: 32228"] Ghanaian defender Kennedy Boateng has explained why he switched allegiance to play for the Togo national team. The towering guardsman has capped 4 times for the Togo national team since switching nationality from Ghana. He made his debut for the Hawks of Togo in March this year. Explaining why he switched nationality, he said, “I’m playing in Europe and I felt if I am not playing for the Black Stars, it is not going to spoil anything. I think we have young Ghanaian talents in Europe who can play when given the chance” “So, for me joining Togo at the end of the day my mother is a Togolese and that is why I decided to play for them. Togo head coach called me and explained how important I will mean to the team and I said to myself that if am not having the chance to play for Ghana, then I have to switch and play for Togo” he said. He featured for the Ghana national U-20 team. Boateng had his development at Ghanaian side WAFA SC before moving abroad in August 2016 to sign for Austrian Bundesliga side LASK Linz.
