Among the squad, there is a debut call-up for West Bromwich forward Brandon Thomas-Asante. The Baggies forward, who has finished as the club’s top goalscorer in each of his two seasons at The Hawthorns, will join the Black Stars squad ahead of their two upcoming FIFA World Cup qualifiers in June.
Thomas-Asante will hope to earn his debut when Ghana travels to Bamako to take on Mali on Thursday, June 6. Ghana’s second qualifier is a home fixture against the Central African Republic on Monday, June 10, at the Baba Yara Stadium.
