In the forthcoming 2025 AFCON qualifiers, coach Otto Addo has selected his team, which includes two exceptional players from the Ghana Premier League, to play Sudan.
Left-back Isaac Afful of FC Samartex has received his first call-up following strong showings in the CAF Champions League qualifying round and his reliable performances in the current Premier League. His involvement serves as a reminder of his growing power in domestic soccer.
Frederick Asare, the goalkeeper for Asante Kotoko, is also included in the squad. He keeps his position in goal following a string of dominant outings for the Porcupine Warriors.
Otto Addo's Black Stars are looking to turn things around following a sluggish start to Group F—one draw and one loss.
On Thursday, October 11, Ghana will play host to Kwesi Appiah's Sudan at the Accra Sports Stadium. On October 14, 2024, Ghana will travel to Benina, Libya, for the rematch at the Martyrs of Benina Stadium.
