Tottenham Hotspur’s rising star, Persis Martha Oteng, has earned her first-ever call-up to represent the Black Princesses of Ghana following thanks to his impressive efforts in England.
The talented 17-year-old forward made headlines last year when she decided to prioritise playing for Ghana over England as reported by Ghanasoccernet.com.
Persis Oteng’s inclusion in Coach Yusif Basigi’s squad for the third round of the U-20 Women’s World Cup qualifiers against Eswatini is a testament to her emerging talent and the high hopes the national team has for her.
Although born in Oberhausen, Germany, Persis moved to London at the age of 11 in the summer of 2017.
She has been making waves in the world of women’s football, starting her journey with SC Buschhausen, a boys’ team in Germany, before finding her way to Tottenham Hotspur, where she has been steadily rising through the ranks.
