Ghana announce squad for 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against South Africa & Ethiopia

Ghana currently occupy second spot in the Group G standings behind South Africa and know that they will likely need to record back-to-back victories over Ethiopia and Bafana Bafana in order to reach the next round of qualification.

AS Roma starlet Felix Ohene Afena-Gyan has received a maiden call-up alongside Sheriff Tiraspol midfielder Edmund Addo, while Andy Yiadom, Mubarak Wakaso, Manaf Abdul Nurudeen and Richmond Boakye-Yiadom return to the squad.

Meanwhile, a number of familiar faces are also likely to feature, including brothers Andre and Jordan Ayew, Arsenal star Thomas Partey and Leicester City's Daniel Amartey.
