Antoine Semenyo Joins Black Stars Camp After Carabao Cup Success

Ghana international forward Antoine Semenyo has linked up with the Black Stars camp ahead of upcoming international friendlies, arriving shortly after celebrating a major club triumph.

Semenyo reported to the team’s base in Vienna on Monday, less than 24 hours after helping Manchester City secure a 2-0 victory over Arsenal in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.

The 26-year-old forward played an important role in his club’s journey to lifting the trophy, marking the first major title of his professional career. His swift transition from club success to national duty highlights his growing importance to Ghana’s national team setup.

Upon arrival, Semenyo received a warm welcome from teammates and technical staff, reflecting the strong unity within the squad. His presence is expected to boost morale as the team intensifies preparations for key international assignments.

The Black Stars are currently preparing for two high-profile friendly matches against Austria and Germany, which are seen as crucial tests ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The team will face Austria in Vienna before travelling to Stuttgart to take on Germany a few days later.

Semenyo’s recent form has also been impressive since joining Manchester City, where he has quickly established himself as a key attacking option. His confidence and momentum are expected to play a vital role as coach Otto Addo fine tunes his squad.

With preparations underway, Ghana is focused on building cohesion and sharpening its tactics ahead of the global tournament, where the Black Stars aim to make a strong impact.
