Crystal Palace forward Eddie Nketiah has opened up about his international future, offering a balanced and heartfelt response as speculation continues over whether he will eventually commit to Ghana.
Speaking to BBC Sport, Nketiah emphasised that his focus for now is fully on his club career, where he is enjoying an impressive run of form after securing more playing time at Palace.
“At the moment I’m just enjoying my football with Crystal Palace, that’s my main focus,” he said. “I’m Ghanaian and there’s no denying that. I’m proud of my roots. The future will take care of itself… what will be will be.”
His comments come at a time when the Ghana Football Association and many Black Stars supporters continue to express interest in securing the talented forward for the national team. Nketiah, who represented England at youth level, remains eligible to switch nationality to Ghana.
The 25-year-old’s calm and measured statement suggests he is in no rush to make a definitive international decision, placing priority on consistency, confidence, and development with Crystal Palace.
For many football fans, particularly in Ghana, Nketiah’s words reaffirm not just his heritage but the possibility—however open or uncertain—that he could one day wear the Black Stars jersey.
As he continues to grow and build momentum in the Premier League, the football world will be watching closely to see how “what will be” eventually unfolds.
