Black Stars Coach Kwesi Appiah has begun the pursuit for Ghanaian-born trio Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Inaki Williams and Gideon Yung.
Sources reveal the Coach has begun talks with the three players to switch their allegiance to Ghana.
Fosu-Mensah, who is born to Ghanaian parents have represented the Netherlands at junior level hence eligible to feature for the Black Stars.
The Manchester United defender has already rejected an invite from the Netherland senior National team fueling speculations he could switch his Nationality to his native country.
The former Ajax defender has spent almost his entire career in the European country (Netherland) where he captained the Netherlands U17 team.
Kwesi Appiah is also believed to have expressed interest in persuading Atletico Bilbao attacker Inaki Williams who is also born to a Ghanaian father and a Liberian mother.
Williams has been making the headlines in Spain scoring 13 goals for the La Liga Club this season.
The striker was left out of the Spain squad for the 2016 European Championship in France and has since not earn an invite to the Spanish National team.
Gideon Yung is also seen as one of the great prospect in German football having represented Germany at the junior level. His excellent performance for Humburg SV in the German Bundesliga II has forced Kwesi Appiah to approach him over his availability for the Black Stars.

Oh my brother, I can see that you are very upset about Ghana football and I don't blame you at all. However, I think there is nothing wrong going out there fishing for great talents to represent our national teams. Many great players can be called but only few (11 players) will be chosen to start a game. I am sure the players themselves know that they cannot always feature as team selection is based on merit. What we are facing as a nation of football is discipline issue among players and Management team. And you and I can agree that there is change blowing through all corners. I am sure we will progress with time. Lets support the good course they embark on and give our constructive criticisms when they go astray. Besides,there is no greater love than giving back to your country. "Afei nso, s3 y3fa ***barred word*** wansena ho abufuo bebree a y3 b3 bre yekuro" I LOVE GHANA!!!
There they go again! To hunt for talents, bring it to Ghana and destroy them. These players should not heed to the calls. Look at what Ghana did to Quincy Owusu Abayie, KP Boateng and Schlupp. They say nice things to woo a player to join the Black Stars. When they get the players, they use them and dump them. I will like to appeal to the parents of these players not to listen to the coach and GFA. Let their players stay in Europe and aim at playing for their European countries. Even if they fail, they would be guaranteed better careers and retirements. The parents of these players must think of how bad things were in Ghana for them. They should think of what they would have been if they had stayed in Ghana. Clearly, Ghana and its system does not help. Ghana's system destroys talent. That is why they migrated, they should not put their children in such a trap.
