The 23-year-old was a
regular left-back for the Black Stars at the 2006 World Cup in Germany but lost
his place due to unsuccessful stints abroad and a threatening calf injury.
Last season he played
for the then newly-promoted Wa All Stars before switching to AshantiGold this
term.
Habib is counting on
his goodish output against Nigeria last Sunday to chart his way back into the
national set-up for next year's final round 2010 joint qualifiers.
"As at now even with
this match show that I?m ready to get back into the national team. It was
difficult for me but I have overcome it and looking ahead," Habib told
Ghanasoccernet.com
"I have signed and
the club's ambitions and my performance can move me forward. I know I belong to
the team but I will have to work hard to achieve it."
The Black Stars have
struggled for a permanent left-back in recent times. Harrison Afful has been without
a club since ending his contract with local side Kotoko.
Bayern Leverkusen's
Hans Adu-Sarpei also lacks the requisite match fitness after returning from a
long injury lay-off.
