St Pat's star receives international call-up for Unity Cup in London
St Patrick's Athletic goalkeeper Joseph Anang has been called into the Ghana squad for the first time.
The 24-year-old has been named in the Black Stars' squad for the Unity Cup which takes place in London.
And Anang will be hoping to feature in Wednesday's game against Nigeria, at Brentford's Gtech Community Stadium.

The winner will advance to a final against Trinidad & Tobago or Jamaica, with the loser going into a third-placed playoff.
Late last season, Anang revealed how Ghana have been monitoring him for two years with a view to a call-up.
At the time, the Saints ace said: 'We have been speaking the last two years but I was at West Ham as a No 3 and not playing.
'They might look at me more in the future (being back at St Pat's), you never know. I'm just putting in the work and waiting for a call-up.'
Arsenal's Thomas Partey and Mohammed Kudus of West Ham have been told they can sit out the Unity Cup, so won't be part of the squad with Anang.
Antoine Semenyo, and Kamaldeen Sulemana and Inaki Williams are other notable absentees.
