He claimed that when he first visited Ghana, Ghanaians offered him a warm welcome, which influenced his choice to change his nationality from England.

Lamptey expressed his appreciation for the warm welcome he received in Ghana during an interview on the Citi Breakfast Show and admitted that it had an impact on his decision-making.

He mentioned that while several factors contributed to his decision to play for the Black Stars, the incredible feeling he experienced when interacting with the Ghanaian people during his charity foundation work was a pivotal moment for him.

“It was a number of things that went into it but one of them was when I was doing my charity foundation last summer, and you see the people and the amazing feeling that they give you. So that obviously made the decision.
