Prior to the friendly matchup with the Nigerian Super Eagles, Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has played down the absence of a few of his most important players.
Important players like Daniel Amartey, Thomas Partey, Alexander Djiku, Mohammed Kudus, and Inaki Williams won’t be available for Addo to rely on for the match.
Without the main players, the gaffer has sent invites to Ebenezer Annan, Forson Amankwah, Francis Abu, Ibrahim Osman, and Frederick Asare.
Nonetheless, the former German player for Borussia Dortmund stated that it is a chance for the newcomers to the club to demonstrate their abilities.
“It is a pity; we would always want to go with our strongest squad especially when we are playing against Nigeria but for me I am looking for opportunities and it’s an opportunity for the new players to show themselves,” Addo said in an interview with the Ghana FA media.
“So for that, I am not thinking about who could be here and who could help us.
“Looking at the reality, this is a squad with experienced players and also with young players who are on their way up and who can show me what level and stage they can play.”
