Fit-again winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is set to return to the Black Stars ahead of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers scheduled next month.  The exciting forward has been out of the senior national team for months after picking up an anterior cruciate ligament injury during the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.

Fatawu Issahaku picked up the injury against Angola in Luanda and was subsequently ruled out for the game against Niger in Accra.

Following his return to his club, the Foxes confirmed that the former Dreams FC and Steadfast FC forward will miss the rest of the season.

However, after recovering from injury, Fatawu Issahaku joined his teammates at pre-season and has featured in all games for Leicester City in the ongoing Skybet Championship campaign.
