Ghana new boys charged to fight for their places on first national duty

Former Ghana captain Charles 'CK' Akonnor has urged the new players in Ghana's senior squad to make the most of their selection for the national outfit.

Seven men, including 20-year-old Real Valladolid centre-back Mohammed Salisu, have been summoned for senior national duty for the first time as coach James Kwesi Appiah announced his squad for upcoming 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying games against South Africa and Sao Tome and Principe.

Real Mallorca midfielder Iddrisu Mohammed Baba has also been invited, as have German-born winger Christopher Antwi-Adjei and Nordsjaelland midfielder Mohammed Kudus.
