World Cup: Clubs congratulate their players included in Otto Addo’s squad
Ghana BlackStars coach Otto Addo named his finalized squad ahead of the FIFA World Cup slated for Qatar, in 2022.
Last week, the BlackStars head coach named his initial 55squad list with the intention of trimming it down to a further 26-man squad before the tournament kick starts later this month in Qatar.
In the course of the week names such as Joseph Painstil, Mubarak Wakaso, Bernard Terkpetey, and Felix Afena Gyan, were told of their exclusions whiles minor injuries to BlackStars goalkeepers, Richard Ofori, Wollacott as well as Baba Iddrissu saw them ruled out of their final squad announcement.
