Bristol City midfielder Han-Noah Massengo has turned down an offer to play internationally for Congo ahead of next month’s African Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Reports in Africa over the weekend had claimed that Paris-born Massengo, who has played for France at Under-17 and U18 level, was going to be included in Paul Put’s squad this week having declared to play for the Red Devils, but Bristol Live understands that won't be the case.
The 20-year-old would have followed the lead of Robins teammate Antoine Semenyo who earlier this year declared for Ghana and is expected to be named in Otto Addo’s squad for their qualifiers next month against Madagascar and Central African Republic after injury prevented a maiden call-up in March.
