Sweden, Burkina Faso and Ghana.
Isak Hien can play for three national teams – and now Haris Radetinac is calling on national team captain Janne Andersson to act fast.
– It is important that Sweden pick him up quickly, otherwise Ghana will do it, says his colleague.
Sporting director Boss Anderson set the tone on Sportbladet’s broadcast of Djurgarden’s defeat to FC APOEL (3-0) in the first round of the European Conference League.
He must be part of a national team. Isak is the best Allsvenskan. It would be difficult to keep him in Djurgården given the great interest if he was there. It could end in a big way for Isaac because I know the clubs that were here and I watched him tonight.
According to Sportbladet information, Galatasaray was one of the clubs, and Djurgården has already secured concrete offers from a handful of other European clubs for the centre-back diamond.
“I could have joined”
But what about the national team? The 23-year-old can represent Sweden, Burkina Faso and Ghana.
I wouldn’t be ashamed to think of the national team. Hjalmar Ekdal, who I play with at Djurgården, has been great last year and this year, he’s there. Then I feel I could have participated as well, says Henn and continues:
– But there is also a difference between player and player. When it comes to the national team, this is a huge problem and all Swedish players can join in. So I am not in a hurry. Hjalmar was voted the best Svenskan comeback and it took some time before he joined in. So you don’t have to be too cocky.
Burkina Faso called Hain
Hein says he has already been in contact with Burkina Faso.
– I don’t have a passport there, but maybe it can be resolved. I had a phone conversation with the Confederate commander. It’s a tough decision. My father was born and raised in Ghana so I can play there too. They have a dirty squad. However, they did not hear back.
“Quickly take him!”
Any teammate that Harris Radetenak noticed. He thinks it’s only a matter of time before the long-running African team tries to open Hien.
– If Isak plays against these teams in Europe and cares about the strikers we meet in a brave way – why shouldn’t he be able to play for Sweden? It is important that Sweden choose it quickly. Because otherwise Ghana will take it. I can promise you that!
Henn laughs a little when he hears about Radetinak’s stunt, but the reasons for the difficult decision.
– It will be a fight. But I never felt the need to pick the national team based on who he contacts first. Whoever wins the clock too. I don’t feel that way. My goal was never to play for the national team against the national team to be called up. So a call from the captain of the Burkina Faso national team doesn’t stress me out.
