Ghana head coach Charles Kwabla Akonnor could hand Hearts of Oak captain Fatawu Mohammed a Black Stars debut against South Africa on Monday, September 6.
Bafana Bafana will host Ghana in a second Group G game in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers at the FNB stadium.
The team arrived in South Africa in the late hours of Saturday without 5 UK based players and two others.
Jordan Ayew, Daniel Amartey, Andy Yiadom, Baba Rahman, Jeffrey Schlupp (injured) all missed the trip due to the Premier League’s decision not to allow their players travel to red listed countries.
Whereas Kamaldeen Sulemana and Daniel Kofi Kyere have been recalled by their club.
Hence, there will be many changes in the team that played against Ethiopia last Friday.
Jonathan Mensah might take Amartey’s place while Fatawu replace Yiadom on the right side of defense as Gideon Mensah could also replace Baba Rahman on the left.
On the flanks, with Schlupp and Kamaldeen absent, Yaw Yeboah and Emmanuel Gyasi could be named in the line up as Joel Fameye replace Jordan as the target man.
Probable Lineup below:
Richard Ofori; Gideon Mensah, Alexander Djiku, Jonathan Mensah, Fatawu Mohammed; Mubarak Wakaso, Baba Idrissu, Yaw Yeboah, Emmanuel Gyasi; Andre Ayew and Joel Fameye.
