U23 Afcon: Ghana call up home-based 18 for camp

A team of 18 home-based players have been summoned to begin training ahead of next month's Africa U23 Cup of Nations in Egypt.

Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak each have two players on the roster, namely Kwame Baah and Danlad Ibrahim, as well as Richmond Ayi and William Dankyi, respectively.

Berekum Chelsea centre-back Zakaria Fuseini, who together with Baah, was the only home-based player to regularly feature in coach Ibrahim Tanko's starting line-up during the qualifiers, has been called up as well.

The team will later be beefed up with a host of foreign-based players who are expected to dominate the final squad for the November 8-22 championship.
