Black Stars: Three Home-Based Players Earn National Team Call-Ups
Coach Otto Addo has included three local players in his 25 man-squad for the AFCON Qualifiers against Angola and Niger.
There have been suggestions from the Ghanaian football fraternity to include local players in the Black Stars set-up for the last two games of the qualifiers.
Otto Addo has invited Isaac Afful of FC Samartex who was part of the previous squad. Razak Simpson of Nations Football Club and Emmanuel Antwi of Asante Kotoko have also been called.
