Salifu Ibrahim poised to choose Benin over Ghana for international duty. Ghanaian-born midfielder Salifu Ibrahim is reportedly set to switch sporting nationality to represent Benin.
The former Hearts of Oak midfielder, who was voted the best player in the Ghanaian league in the 2020/21 season, is currently moving to the Kosovar first division.
If his transfer is made official, Salifu will join the growing list of players who have chosen to represent other African nations over Ghana.
Salifu Ibrahim is reportedly set to represent Benin after years of neglect by Black Stars selectors.
The 27-year-old, who was once an iconic figure in the Ghanaian league, has reportedly already begun the process of changing nationality to pursue a more promising international career.
Salifu, affectionately nicknamed Di Maria by fans, first made his acquaintance with Techiman Eleven Wonders before making his way to Hearts of Oak, where he became one of the most influential game managers in national football.
