Atsu has been out of the radar for some time, and his absence from the Black Stars team could be felt in this year’s AFCON hosted by Cameroon.
The Ghana team lacked pace and attacking options, snowballing into one of its worst tournaments without a single win.
Handlers of the Ghana team could instinctively be pulling in the direction of the pacy winger whose style of play is exactly what the team needs to surge forward and disturb opponents at the Arabian Gulf football Mundial.
Atsu’s assessment could be based on his current form and what is known about him as a footballer for the past eight years. He is powerful on the ball, glides well and is almost unstoppable when advancing.
He is not one of the players who fear to move forward, for he invariably has chest-facing defenders.
If Ghana needs experience on the pitch of play in the daunting assignments ahead, the name of Christian Atsu easily comes up as a possibility.
A veritable opportunity to savour as the winger with the speed of Sputnik signs for a Turkish top side. Ghana is now spoilt for choice and could mow world cup opponents on any good day.
