Amartey, Williams, Ayew among top tier talent in Ghana squad

OTTO Addo has named the 26 players who will represent Ghana at the FIFA World Cup.

Amongst others, Denis Odoi, Daniel Amartey, Inaki Williams and Jordan Ayew are established top-tier talents heading to Qatar to represent Ghana. The Black Stars are hoping to replicate and improve on their quarterfinal reaching performance at Brazil 2014.

However, there was no room in Addo’s squad for Joseph Paintsil, who has impressed for Genk recently, or Jeffrey Schlupp of Crystal Palace. Felix Afena-Gyan, also misses out.

Ghana play their first group game against Portugal on November 24, before facing Korea Republic and their 2010 nemesis, Uruguay.
