Inaki Williams, the senior brother of Nico Williams, has chosen to represent the nation of his parents’ Ghana, and Nico Williams has sent his best wishes to him.
Inaki Williams agreed to play for Ghana in July of this year after years of rejecting their advances and having one cap for Spain.
While Nico Williams unexpectedly received a call-up to the Spain national team for their UEFA Nations League games.
Inaki Williams played two games for Ghana during the international break, the first one against Brazil and the second one against Nicaragua.
Nico Williams also made his debut in Spain’s 2-1 loss against Switzerland before providing the assist for Alvaro Morata’s winner against Portugal in the UEFA Nations League game.
“It was a natural decision, each one took their path and made their decision in a thoughtful way,” Nico said.
“I am very happy that my brother is in Ghana, I wish him things to go well, that he can have a great World Cup and achieve the highest goals.”
The two brothers join Kevin Prince Boateng and Jerome Boateng who played for two different nations Ghana and Germany and even faced each other at the 2010 World Cup group stage which Germany won 1-0 and the 2014 World Cup group stage game which ended 2-2.
