The last time the Meteors made it to the Olympics was in 2004 in Athens, Greece.

According to a report by Adehyee FM, the FA has called up some Black Stars players who qualify to be part of the U-23 team to play in their upcoming game.

Per the report, Kamaldeen Sulemana (Southampton, England), Daniel Afriyie Barnie( FC Zurich, Switzerland), Felix Afena Gyan (Cremonese, Italy), Abdul Fatawu Issahaku (Sporting Lisbon, Portugal) and Ibrahim Danlad (Asante Kotoko, Ghana) to the national U-23 team.

Sulemana, according to the report, will only play for the U-23 side if Black Stars coach, Chris Hughton does not include him in his team for the Stars’ upcoming AFCON qualifying game against Angola.
