Ghana FA president Kwesi Nyantakyi has confirmed that Kevin-Prince Boateng is now part of the Black Stars after announcing his retirement two years ago.

Nyantakyi said the AC Milan midfielder has communicated officially to him and coach Kwesi Appiah that he is available for selection.

“Kevin-Prince Boateng had confirmed to the coach and my good self that he was coming back to play,” Nyantakyi told SuperSport.

“Let me confirm that before Kwesi Appiah selected his team for the Sudan game Kevin had told the coach and me that he was available for that game.”

The FA boss added: “Unfortunately, a week before that game, he picked up an injury during training with AC Milan but he told us that he would participate in the team's games in June.”

The German-born Ghanaian player retired from the national team in 2011 citing “physical demands” that is making it impossible to commit to both club and country. He switched nationality ahead of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and scored a goal during the global fiesta for Ghana.

His last match for the Black Stars was in early 2011 in a 2012 African Nations Cup qualifier against Congo Brazzaville in Kumasi.
