Ghana FA provides Akonnor update ahead of first squad announcement

New Ghana coach CK Akonnor is back from a player monitoring exercise abroad and is set to release his first selection next week, the football association has announced.

Appointed boss of the Black Stars in January, the former Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak trainer has spent over a month outside the shores of Ghana, touching base with current players of the team and meeting prospective additions to discuss their international futures.

Ghana are billed to take on Sudan in a 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifying double-header next month.
