French-born Ghanaian forward Grejohn Kyei has opened up about playing for the Black Stars.

Kyei began his football career at Reims by playing for the Uu15-U17 categories

He made his Ligue 1 debut on 12 April 2015 against OGC Nice.

Kyei helped Stade de Reims win the 2017–18 Ligue 2 and promote to the Ligue 1 for the 2018–19 season.

“For the moment, I have not really been contacted, even if my entourage was approached before the World Cup," the Clermont Foot striker told Ligue 1 website.

"I know I'm being watched but I've never received a pre-selection. This is my next challenge to take up," he added.

In 2015, Kyei spoke to the BBC about his international career and he said, “I know everything in France because I was born here, but no one [from the Ghana Football Association] has contacted me.

"But in the future, if Ghana do call me then I have to look at that international option because you can't close doors. "I know for sure that my parents will be excited if it happens," he added.

Kyei has scored 9 goals in 37 appearances for Clermont Foot.

In August 2018, Kyei joined Ligue 2 club RC Lens on loan for the season with Lens securing an option to sign him permanently.

In August 2019, Kyei joined Swiss Super League club Servette FC on a three-year contract.

On 31 January 2022, Kyei returned to France and signed with Ligue 1 side Clermont until the end of the 2021–22 season.
