Black Stars head coach Otto Addo is expected to name his provisional squad for the 2022 World Cup in the coming days, according to local media reports.
The 47 year old trainer is then required to submit his final squad to Fifa by Sunday 13 November, a week before the opening game between hosts Qatar and Ecuador.
Otto Addo is allowed to pick a 26-player squad for the final tournament, up from 23 at the previous World Cup in Russia.
Prior to making their final selection, managers are able to name up 55 players in their preliminary squads or, to use Fifa’s jargon, “release lists”. If a player in the final 26 gets injured, they can be replaced by someone on the release list.
As is the case in most domestic leagues, managers are able to make up to five substitutes per game which is partially why the squad size has been increased.
Ghana who will be making their fourth appearance at the global showpiece are pitted in Group H alongside Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea.
