Benjamin Asare Replaces Gidios Aseako in Black Stars Squad for Mexico Friendly
Benjamin Asare has been drafted into the Black Stars squad ahead of the upcoming international friendly against Mexico.
The Accra Hearts of Oak goalkeeper replaces Gidios Aseako in the squad and is expected to join the team for the match scheduled for Friday, May 22, 2026.
Asare has steadily built his reputation as one of the top goalkeepers in the Ghana Premier League through a series of impressive performances for Hearts of Oak.
His consistency earned him a first senior national team invitation last year, and he went on to make his debut for Ghana against Chad in March 2025.
The shot-stopper has since accumulated 11 appearances for the national team, establishing himself as a reliable option between the posts.
His inclusion adds further domestic representation to the squad assembled by head coach Carlos Queiroz as Ghana continue preparations for upcoming international assignments and the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
