Brighton and Hove Albion star Tariq Lamptey has made a return to the Black Stars squad for this month’s friendlies against Nigeria and Uganda.
Lamptey’s inclusion in the 26-man squad marks a significant moment for both the player and the national team, as his dynamic playing style and defensive prowess have been sorely missed in recent matches.
The 23 year-old defender, who has been a standout performer for Brighton in the English Premier League, suffered a setback with an injury that forced him to miss out on representing Ghana at the Africa Cup of Nations in Côte d’Ivoire earlier this year.
However, after undergoing rehabilitation and regaining his fitness, Lamptey is now ready to resume his international duties.
The friendly games scheduled for Marrakech, Morocco marks the beginning of the new era under Otto Addo.
Ghana will take on Nigeria on Friday, March 22, before facing Uganda four days later.
