(Reuters) -West Ham United's English-born right back Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been named in a 26-man squad by Democratic Republic of Congo for friendlies in June, setting him up for a possible trip to the next Africa Cup of Nations and potentially the 2026 World Cup.
The 27-year-old Wan-Bissaka had turned down previous approaches from the Congolese to play for them, notably ahead of last year’s Cup of Nations finals in the Ivory Coast.
