Twenty one players of the senior national team the Black Stars have reported at the Accra Sports Stadium for the first training session ahead of a crucial Nations Cup double header against Uganda and Togo.
The players who were taken through a light warm-up session by stand-in coach Maxwell Konadu include:
Fatau Dauda (AshGold), Adams Stephen (Aduana Stars) and Razak Braimah (Mirandes FC, Spain)
Yaw Frimpong (TP Mazembe, DR Congo), Harrison Afful (Esperance FC, Tunisia), Awal Mohammed (Maritzburg, South Africa), Baba Rahman (FC Augsburg, Germany), Jeffery Schlupp (Leicester City, England), John Boye (Erciyesspor, Turkey), Kwabena Adusei (Mpumalanga Black Aces, South Africa) and Jonathan Mensah (Evian, France)
Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu (Udinese, Italy), Rabiu Mohammed (Krasnodar, Russia), Mubarak Wakaso (Celtic, Scotland), Atsu Christian (Everton, England), Asante Solomon (T.P. Mazembe, DR Congo), Gyimah Edwin (Mpumalanga Black Aces, South Africa), Afriyie Acquah (Parma FC, Italy) Andre Ayew (Olympique Marseille, France) and strikers Jordan Ayew (Lorient, France), Abdul-Majeed Waris (Trabzonspor, Turkey), David Accam (Helsenborg, Sweden), Emmanuel Osei Banahene, (Al Orobah, Saudi Arabia).
Two more players, Solomon Asante and Jefferey Schlupp are expected to arrive later today, Joy Sports' Tony Bebli reported.
Ghana would play Uganda in the penultimate nations cup qualifier in Kampala before returning to Accra to welcome Togo.
The Stars need just a win to book a place in next year's tournament which appears to be in limbo following the withdrawal of host Morocco.
The North African country could not risk the spread of Ebola and therefore decided not to host the tournament.
With no country ready to step in, at least for now, it remains to be seen whether the tournament will go on as scheduled.
