Leicester City winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku and Clermont Foot defender Alidu Seidu have been recalled to Ghana’s squad for the crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against the Central African Republic and Comoros.
Issahaku makes his comeback after nearly a year on the sidelines with an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
The 20-year-old has been in fine form for Leicester in the English Championship, convincing head coach Otto Addo of his readiness for international duty.
Seidu also rejoins the team after recovering from a long-term knee injury that has kept him out of action for almost 12 months.
The squad features exciting new additions, including OGC Nice forward Kojo Peprah Oppong, who earns his maiden senior call-up following an impressive campaign in Ligue 1.
The 21-year-old, a product of Attram De Visser Academy, has emerged as one of the brightest young prospects in French football.
Medeama SC midfielder Prince Owusu has also received his first invitation to the senior national team after a strong start to the Ghana Premier League season.
Ghana will face the Central African Republic on Wednesday, October 8, at the Stade d’Honneur de Meknes in Morocco before returning home to host Comoros at the Accra Sports Stadium on Sunday, October 12.
The Black Stars currently lead Group I with 19 points and need positive results in their final two matches to secure a fifth FIFA World Cup appearance.
