Two locally-based players have made the cut to the Black Stars for the AFCON 2023 qualifiers and four-nation tournament to be hosted in Japan.
Coach Otto Addo on May 26, 2022 extended invitations to Accra Hearts of Oak playmaker, Daniel Afriyie Barnieh and Augustine Okrah of Bechem United.
Augustine Okrah is fourth on the goalscoring rank in the Ghana Premier League with 13 goals while Afriyie Barnieh has 8 goals for the defending GPL champions.
The duo has previously been called up to the Black Stars but never played for the team.
The Black Stars will first play Madagascar on June 1, before flying to Central African Republic 4 days later.
They then head to Japan to play in a four nation tournament where they will compete against Tunisia, Japan and Chile.
