Spanish International, Raul Garcia believes Inaki Williams’ upbringing at Athletic Bilbao could be the reason behind his struggles with the Ghanaian national football team, the Black Stars.
The Spanish giant striker Iñaki Williams has had an on and off performance in his international career with the Black Stars since switching from Spain in 2022.
The striker has been in an impressive form at the club level, where he has scored 8 goals and provided 2 assists in 20 games this season.
Garcia who plays with the Ghana international at Athletic Bilbao has nothing but respect and believe in the capabilities of the Williams when he settles in the Ghana team.
“It is true that he has not reached the desired levels when he plays for Ghana,” he told LALIGA press.
“This is, however, no excuse but normally for these matches you have to travel long hours and this is not good for performances of a player, but he wants to do things the right way and he wants to be there,” he added.
“Obviously, the circumstances of having brand new colleagues, and not really being adapted to the team doesn’t make the situation any easier. As you say, he’s playing in the north of Spain and we’ve all known each other for many years so it makes it easier.
“But I’m sure Inaki will achieve wonderful results and he is aware that he has to forge ahead and I am sure he will find form in the team soon enough” he concluded.
