Otto Addo to announce Black stars squad for Unity Cup next week

Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Henry Asante Twum, has hinted that Otto Addo will announce Black Stars squad for the Unity Cup next week.

The senior national team will be involved in a four-nation tournament later this month in the United Kingdom.

Ghana will face West African rivals, Nigeria, in a semifinal tie at Brentford's Gtech Community Stadium on May 28, with kick-off scheduled at 19:00 GMT.

The winner will face Jamaica or Trinidad and Tobago in the finals on Saturday, May 31, with kick-off scheduled at 12:30 GMT.

Asante Twum, speaking in an interview, hinted that the squad for the tournament will be announced next week and also added that there would be new faces.

"I know the technical team is considering how to approach this Cup, there will be some fresh additions while keeping the core of the team," he told Akoma FM.

"Possibly by next week, the coach will announce his team, and if we have local players, they will join the local contingents and move directly to London to begin preparations," he added.

Meanwhile, local media reports suggest that Asante Kotoko pair Andrews Ntim Manu and Kwame Opoku would add to Kamaradini Mamudu, Razak Simpson and current number one goalkeeper for the senior national team, Benjamin Asare, for the four-nation tournament.
