The decision concerning the Ayden Heaven Ghana has been confirmed, and now weeks of debate on whether or not Manchester United defender, Ayden Heaven, will play internationally are over. The 19-year-old has also not decided to change his loyalty and has stuck to the idea of joining the England seniors call-up.
The Manchester United centre-back is also allowed to play for Ghana by virtue of family ties, and there was a possibility of having a direct road to the World Cup. But the player has chosen that his long-term goal is to work in the England national team following his representation of the country at several youth levels.
The emergence of Heaven over the last year has been high after switching to Manchester United in February this year in a deal that is worth about 1 million dollars after he left Arsenal. Although a midfielder was developed during his early years in the game, he has made himself a central defender within the system of Ruben Amorim.
Manager of United Ruben Amorim has also remained a person of trust towards the teenager and has employed him frequently in a three-man defence. This has fitted the strengths of Heaven on the ball, as he is composed in possession and passes progressively, which results in internal acclaim in the club.
His early senior tours had some bad moments, such as losing the Carabao Cup against Grimsby Town, but he has progressed steadily. His level of performance improved drastically in December, with a spectacular performance on Boxing Day versus Newcastle United.
The Ghana Football Association had also shown interest, and the officials had been keeping a keen eye on his progress. Reports revealed that Ghana saw Heaven as a future alternative and was willing to allow him to have more senior experience first before investing in him prior to a major tournament.
The Ayden Heaven Ghana ruling was a decision that was reported by reputable sources such as BBC Sport before the World Cup next summer. England and Ghana are enticed into the same category, which is given additional meaning to a decision that may lead to the international career that Heaven may make.
Heaven already has an established track record of having played at the Under-18, Under-19, and Under-20 levels, and does not have any senior caps, so his route to the top is open. To date, the Ayden Heaven Ghana ruling enables him to give his entire attention to his club form, and further performances with Manchester United are regarded as the triggering point to senior international publicity.
