World Cup 2022 qualifiers: Ghana add Celta Vigo's Aidoo and Poland-based Yeboah to South Africa trip

Four new players have been called up to join the Black Stars for their trip to Johannesburg on September 6

Celta Vigo defender Joseph Aidoo and Wisla Krakow attacker Yaw Yeboah are among four additions to Ghana’s squad for their upcoming 2022 World Cup qualifier against South Africa due to the coronavirus-forced unavailability of England-based players named on the original 30-man roster.

Germany-born duo Daniel Kofi Kyereh and Braydon Manu, both uncapped, have also been called up for the first time.

The four new players are set to take the places of the England-based quintet of Daniel Amartey (Leicester City), Jordan Ayew (Crystal Palace), Tariqe Fosu-Henry (Brentford FC), Baba Abdul Rahman (Reading FC) and Andrew Yiadom (Reading FC) for the September 6 fixture away in Johannesburg.
