Sweden U21 coach Håkan Ericson has included two Ghanaian players in his final squad for the 2015 Euro U21 Championship, GHANAsoccernet.com has confirm. 

Ericson settled on Baffo, 22, for a place in his defence as the central defender has enormous experience playing for Sweden through their youth ranks and excelling at club level - winning the Swedish Allsvenskan with Helsingborg IF four seasons ago.

Though Baffo has declared his intentions to switch nationality and play for Ghana, he continues to feature for the Europeans as no official interest has been shown by Ghana.

Quaison on the other hand, an attacking midfielder who plays for Italian Serie A side Palermo joins the squad as one of the few players who earned selection from abroad.

The former AIK Solna goal-getter has said he feels Swedish and will not consider playing for Ghana.
