Asamoah's latest withdrawal has raised another round of questions about his commitment to the national course following his controversial pull-out from November's encounter with Ethiopia in the Afcon qualifying. While he withdrew due to injury, reports on Inter's online media outlets showed the player fully involved in training activities with the club during the international break, prompting backlash back home in Ghana.
