Published on: 20 June 2024

Ghanaian striker Bernard Tekpetey has disclosed that he is considering switching his international allegiance to Bulgaria after being consistently overlooked by the Black Stars since his debut in 2017.

Tekpetey, who has not played for the Black Stars since 2017, stated that he will make a decision about his international future before heading to pre-season training with Ludogorets Razgrad in the Bulgarian league.

In an interview with the Daily Graphic, Tekpetey mentioned that he plans to consult with his family before making a final decision.

"It always circulates about my nationality switch because I have a Bulgarian passport. It is a very important decision that I will take with my family before leaving for pre-season," he said.

"Definitely, you will know of my decision before I leave for Bulgaria." Tekpetey, 26, also stated that he was looking for a new challenge in club football.

"The transfer window is already open and there are clubs I am speaking to. I hope I can face a different challenge in a new league as well."

Last season, Tekpetey scored 15 goals and provided 10 assists in all competitions for Ludogorets.
