CITI FM can confirm that ?Reggae? as he?s popularly known in football circles will be out of town for three weeks to justify his inclusion in the Serie A side.

The invitation of the midfielder was strengthened by the fact that fellow Ghanaian Sulley Muntari is currently doing exploits with another Serie A ou! tfit Udinese.

Liberty Professionals undoubtedly holds the core of the senior national team, the black Stars. The likes of Michael Essien, Asamoah Gyan, Emmanuel Addoquaye Pappoe, Joetex Frimpong, Sulley Ali Muntari to mention a few are all products of the club.

Ascoli is presently 14th on the Serie A league table with 13 points and drew 1-1 with Palermo last weekend.
