Emmanuel Lomotey to prove doubters wrong as he makes latest Black Stars squad

Ghana coach Charles Kwabla Akonnor named his 23-man squad that will square off with fellow African faithful, Sudan for the Africa Cup of Nations qualifying series on Friday, October 30, 2020.



A quick peek through the list sees, Amiens midfielder Emmanuel Lomotey making the squad following subpar performance in his debut game against Mali, where the country were heavily battered.

Many have been quick to question reasons surrounding Emmanuel Lomotey’s call-up but the Ghana headcoach, CK Akonnor a man with numerous years of experience knows it’s imperative to give players equal opportunities to justify themselves hence reason for his inclusion into the team ahead of the doubleheader against Sudan.

Lomotey will be thanking his stars for getting the opportunity to unwrite his wrongs and playing out his heart out this time around in order to cement his place in a choked Blackstars midfielder gifted with players of similar traits as himself or even better.

He has stared in 7 matches this season in Ligue 2, playing a total of 416 minutes yet to score or assist in the ongoing league for Amiens SC.

Akonnor and his charges will be looking to fend of stiff competition from Sudan to secure qualification in the doubleheader in November.

The Black Stars will host Falcons of Jediane at the Cape Coast Stadium on November 12 before flying to Khartoum for the reverse fixture on Tuesday, November 17.
