Daniel Afriyie Barnieh (born 26 June 2001) is a Ghanaian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder, or forward for Ghanaian Premier league side Accra Hearts of Oak.
Born in the Ashanti Region of Ghana, Afriyie is an Akan by birth and descent. He attended Dunyan Nkwanta JHS in the Ahafo Ano South district, Mankranso in Ashanti Region and later proceeded to Aduman Senior High School in Aduman for his secondary school education.
It has been reported that Hearts of Oak and Black Stars forward, Daniel Afriyie Barnieh will be leaving the shores of Ghana to sign a bumper deal in Europe after the World Cup.
But his name has been listed among the Black Galaxies 40-man provisional squad for the CHAN tournament.
As reported on Thursday, the Rainbows are open to the sale of the 21-year-old attacker if only he decides to leave after the World Cup.
Meanwhile, the Black Galaxies gaffer has disclosed that he will find a possible replacement for the youngster should Barnieh refuse to continue his career in Ghana.
“So far as he has not signed a foreign contract his name must be on the list because he is my player. I look up at him. I can’t remove his name whilst he has not signed a foreign contract. He will be replaced if he signs a foreign contract in January but for now, his name can’t be taken out,” Annor Walker while speaking in an interview with Ghana sports.
The Black Galaxies will return to the CHAN tournament in Algeria next year after missing out on the last three editions.
The team secured a qualification ticket to the final competition following their dominance over Benin and Nigeria barely months ago.
Ghana has been paired in Group C alongside Morocco, Madagascar, and Sudan.
