Callum Hudson-Odoi, who is on holidays in Ghana after lifting the Champions League with Chelsea, joined the hysteria of this week’s round of Ghana Premier League matches.
The Chelsea star of Ghanaian descent through his father, was spotted at the Accra Sports Stadium for the highly anticipated fixture.
Bismark Odoi, father to Hudson, is a retired footballer who is reported to have featured for the Phobians during his career.
Hudson-Odoi received a customized jersey from Hearts fans before the game.
The game between Olympics and Hearts ended in a draw, with Maxwell Quaye cancelling out Emmanuel Nettey’s wonder strike.
Hudson-Odoi despite featuring for the Three Lions of England is still eligible to represent the Black Stars of Ghana, following FIFA’s adjustment of the rules governing international representation.
