His earlier visit saw him meet influential figures including Ghana's president Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo as discussions of his nationality change was held.

Odoi, whose father played for Ghana Premier League outfit Hearts of Oak, has remained tight-lipped about his national team status.

He has represented England at all youth levels but still eligible to play for Ghana and 'CCTV' hitmaker King Promise has reignited talks of Odoi switching his nationality.

In a post on Twitter, spotted by Sports Brief, King Promise suggested he has spoken to a few of his brothers, who are willing to play for Ghana.

Although, Odoi has already played on three occasions for the Three Lions, a change to FIFA's eligibility rules means he can still switch to Ghana in November this year.

With Ghana on the cusp of returning to the World Cup, that is, should the Black Stars upstage Nigeria in Abuja, Odoi might just be convinced to ditch England for the West African powerhouse.

However, the 21-year-old is still eligible to play for another national team in full international level and Ghana are said to started speaking with the Chelsea star over switching allegiance.
