Sheriff Mohammed, of Asante Kotoko, has been called up to the Black Galaxies for the upcoming tournament after impressing in the Ghana Premier League this season.
Mohammed has been a top performer at the heart of the Porcupine Warriors’ back four since joining from lower-tier club EurAfrica FC in August.
The 20-year-old tough tackling defender has appeared in all eight league games for the reigning Ghana Premier League champions.
Sheriff Mohammed signed a three-year contract with Asante Kotoko from EurAfrica FC for an unknown amount.
Black Galaxies head coach Annor Walker has announced a 40-man preliminary squad for the team to begin training at the Ghanaman Soccer of Excellence, Prampram in preparation for the 2023 African Nations Championship. The tournament begins in a few months.
Group C includes Ghana, Morocco, Sudan, and Madagascar.
Due to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, the CHAN was postponed until 2023 and is now set to begin on January 13, 2023, in Algeria.
The Black Galaxies will take on MTN FA Cup holders Accra Hearts of Oak in a friendly game.
