Inaki Williams set to rejoin Athletic Bilbao for Copa del Rey clash after Ghana’s AFCON exit

The 28-year-old is expected to feature in the Copa del Rey match against Barcelona scheduled for Wednesday at the San Mames.

With Ghana’s fate in the Ivory Coast tournament sealed, a private flight was on standby awaiting confirmation. Williams, who had a limited role in Ghana’s AFCON campaign, is now set to rejoin Athletic Bilbao for their upcoming fixture.

Iñaki Williams made a substitute appearance in the first game against Cape Verde, started against Egypt but faced criticism for an error leading to a goal, and played only two minutes in the final group match against Mozambique.

Ghana’s exit was confirmed as Cameroon secured a crucial victory over Gambia, mathematically eliminating Ghana’s slim chance of advancement.

The Indomitable Lions, led by Rigobert Song, secured a dramatic 3-2 win on Tuesday evening, securing third place in Group C and concluding Ghana’s participation in the tournament.

Meanwhile, in response to the poor showing, the Ghana Football Association has sacked Chris Hughton, the coach of the Black Stars.
