Gunners starlet rejects England opportunity

Arsenal teenager Emmanuel Frimpong has confirmed that he sees his international future with the country of his birth Ghana - not England. The 18-year-old midfielder has represented England at Under-16 levels, but admits his heart is not with his adopted county. Frimpong sees himself as Ghanaian and is not interested in playing for England should he receive a call-up. "I have always said that, no matter what, I will always play for Ghana because at the end of the day, from what I believe, I am a Ghanaian," he told the club's official website. "England has done a lot for me and my family but at the end of the day I can't see myself playing for England because I am not English - I am from Ghana."
