Ghaianan legend Sulley Muntari says he is currently focusing on Hearts of Oak amid calls for his return into the Black Stars for the crucial World Cup play-off against Nigeria later this month.

The 37-year-old has been impressive since joining the Phobians in the second transfer window.

Muntari scored his first goal for the Phobians when they defeated WAFA 2-1 in matchday 19 of the Ghana Premier League at the Accra Sports Stadium on Wednesday.

Asked about how he feel about calls for his inclusion, he said, “I’m pleased but the most important thing is Hearts of Oak now”

“I came in, I got the chance to play for the club, it’s a big team here, the guys are amazing, coach and the staff also. So, I am very pleased to be here and also the fans are making things right, I’m home and it’s just joy to be here” he told StarTimes after Hearts win against WAFA.

The Black Stars will lock horns with Nigeria in a two legged World Cup playoffs with the winner  securing qualification to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Coach Otto Addo is expected to name his final squad in the coming days.
