Rahim Ibrahim Earns First Black Stars Call-Up for AFCON Qualifiers

Slovan Bratislava midfielder Rahim Ibrahim has received his first senior invitation to the Ghana national team, earning a late call-up to the Black Stars squad for the upcoming 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Côte d’Ivoire and Gambia.

The 25-year-old has been rewarded for his impressive form at club level, where he has continued to establish himself as an important figure for Slovakian giants Slovan Bratislava. His performances domestically and in European competition have now earned him recognition at the highest level of Ghanaian football.

Ibrahim has also been added to the squad for Ghana’s international friendly against Morocco, giving him another opportunity to make his senior debut and stake his claim for a place in Carlos Queiroz’s plans.

His call-up marks a significant milestone in a journey that began at Accra Lions before taking him abroad to continue his development. From Accra Lions to Slovan Bratislava and now the Black Stars, Ibrahim’s rise reflects the progress he has made over recent seasons.

The midfielder will now join the national team camp hoping to translate his strong club form onto the international stage as Ghana prepares for a crucial run of fixtures.
