Crawley Town defender David Sesay has revealed that he still is up for the task to represent the Kenyan National Team when called up in the future.

Sesay denies claims that he turned down an international call up in March last year insisting that he is totally committed to feature for the Harambee Stars.

The 21-year-old says he does not have a Kenyan passport and missed the International assignment against Ghana’s Black Stars as he was keen to help his club stave off relegation.

“People say I rejected the chance to play for Kenya but that is not true. I don’t have a Kenyan passport. That was the main factor at the time when the Kenya FA [Football Kenya Federation] officials approached me,” Sesay is quoted by Nation Sport.

“I had also just changed clubs at the time and I had to settle down. Now I am 100 percent ready to play for Kenya. Kenya is the best option.”

Sesay dreams of playing the Africa Cup of Nations with Kenya.

“Afcon is a big tournament in Kenya and all over TV here in England. I followed Kenya’s games,” said Sesay.

“We were in a tough group, but the team showed positive signs and the players really expressed themselves. There is another tournament in two years and it would be an honour to be part of the set-up.”

Sesay has family in Kenya and was born to a Kenyan Mother while his father is from Sierra Leone meaning he can also represent his father’s country also.
