Hearts of Oak gem Raddy Ovouka earns Congo call-up
Hearts of Oak star Raddy Ovouka has been handed a
call-up into the Congo national set-up for their
2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers later this
month.

Congo will be squaring off against Senegal and
Guinea Bissau in Group I of them ongoing
qualifying campaign.

Coach Barthélémy Ngatsono has extended an
invitation to Hearts of Oak guardsman Raddy
Ovouka.

The marauding full-back has established himself as
an instrumental figure at the club, featuring in
all of the side’s seventeen (17) games during
the first round of the 2020/21 Ghana Premier
League.

Ovouka, who many believe is the best left-back in
the Ghanaian top-flight, is expected to clock some
minutes when he joins the team in a fortnight
time.

The 21-year-old was called up by the Central
African nation for the doubleheader against
Eswatini on November 12 and 16, 2020.

However, the games were called off following the
emergence of the deadly Coronavirus.

Ovouka has registered three assists and netted one
goal in 17 outings for the Phobians so far this
term.

Congo will host the already-qualified Teranga
Lions of Senegal at the Stade Alphonse
Massamba-Débat on March 26, 2021.

The Red Devils will play as guests to
Guinea-Bissau four days later.
