Black Stars goalkeeper's trainer Richard Kingson has said Hearts of Oak's Richard Attah and Kotoko's Ibrahim Danlad with time will make their senior national team debut.

The two local goalkeepers over the weekend excelled and kept clean sheets in Hearts of Oak vs Kotoko Super clash which ended 0-0.

Speaking to the media on the duo heroics, Kingson noted that a Black Stars debut could be on the cards for the two keepers ahead of the Ghana-Nigeria World Cup qualifier.

"... off course we already have them, we will just pray that day will come then we will select any of them, the former Great Olympics and Birmingham City shot stopper said.

Attah and Danlad can man the posts, so far as they are in camp they will get their chance to play."

Anyone the coach selects on that day we all need to support him because they all have the qualities to be in posts.

But we have first, second and third choice goalkeepers so we have to go by it accordingly."

Attah was among Ghana's AFCON 2021 squad whereas Danlad was handed an invitation in March 2021 for South Africa and São Tomé and Principe AFCON qualifiers.

However, the duo are yet to make their debut for the senior national team.
