Black Stars Coach Keen To Test New Players Against Super Eagles

Black Stars of Ghana head coach, Otto Addo says the absence of some of his key players won’t affect the team’s chances in the friendly against the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

The likes of Mohammed Kudus, Inaki Williams, Thomas Partey, Alexander Djiku, and Daniel Amartey are not available for selection.

New boys; Ebenezer Annan, Forson Amankwah, Francis Abu, Ibrahim Osman, and Frederick Asare are all expected to make their debut against the Super Eagles.

Addo believes the absence of the key players is an opportunity for the new boys in the squad to show themselves and their capabilities.

“It is a pity; we would always want to go with our strongest squad especially when we are playing against Nigeria but for me I am looking for opportunities and it’s an opportunity for the new players to show themselves,” Addo said in an interview with the Ghana FA media.

“So for that, I am not thinking about who could be here and who could help us. Looking at the reality, this is a squad with experience players and also with young players who are on their way up and who can show me what level and stage they can play.”
