Ghana coach Akonnor considering to invite 15 new players

New Ghana coach Charles 'CK' Akonnor is looking to inject new blood into the Black Stars in his bid to establish a formidable team.

The 45-year-old took over the West Africans' coaching job earlier this month, replacing James Kwasi Appiah.

Akonnor has been tasked to lead Ghana to victory at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) in Cameroon and guide the Black Stars to secure qualification for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

“I think we have to dig deep and look all over for Europe who have had the chance to play for Ghana and those who have not had the chance to do so," Akonnor said, as reported by Citisportsonline.
