Former Ghana international Junior Agogo has been confirmed dead in London.

The former Zamalek FC striker passed on in England at a hospital on Thursday.

He has been suffering from stroke since 2015 and underwent rehabilitation two years ago.

Agogo could be remembered by most Ghanaians for his sterling performance for Ghana at the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations.

Agogo, who began his career at Sheffield Wednesday, played 27 times for his country and scored 12 goals.

He finished his career at Hibernian in 2012 having also had spells in the United States, Cyprus and Egypt.
