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

Henry Asante Twum, the Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), has shared some news. Black Stars head coach Otto Addo will announce his squad for the Unity Cup next week.

The senior national team will compete in a four-nation tournament in the UK later this month. Ghana will face Nigeria in a semifinal match at Gtech Community Stadium in Brentford. This match is set for Tuesday, May 28, at 19:00 GMT.

The winner will move on to the final on Saturday, May 31. They will play against either Jamaica or Trinidad and Tobago at 12:30 GMT.

In an interview with Akoma FM, Asante Twum mentioned that the technical team is finalizing their plans. He hinted that new players might be included in the squad.

He said, “The technical team is considering how to approach this Cup.” He added that there would be fresh additions while keeping core players. The coach is expected to announce his squad by next week.

If local players are selected, they will join the home-based group and travel to London for preparations. Local media reports suggest that Asante Kotoko's Andrews Ntim Manu and Kwame Opoku may be called up.

Additionally, Dreams FC players Kamaradini Mamudu and Razak Simpson could also be included. Current first-choice goalkeeper Benjamin Asare may also make the squad.
