Newcastle United attacker Christian Atsu has linked up with the Ghana national team despite fears regarding his fitness.

Atsu was forced off against Bournemouth during the weekend due to a suspected injury but to allay such fears, it has been revealed that the winger is fully fit and will feature for the Ghana national team during the World Cup qualifiers against Egypt.

Ghana's Football Association tweeted regarding Atsu: "@NUFC star @ChristianAtsu20 has arrived in #Ghana for Sunday's #WorldCup qualifier against #Egypt . He joins #BlackStars this morning."
