Ghana coach Otto Addo has named Accra Hearts of Oak defender Denis Nkrumah Korsah in a 27 man squad for the Black Stars FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 play offs against Nigeria.
The Back Stars will take on the Super Eagles in two matches scheduled for Kumasi and Abuja respectively as the search for a ticket to November’s FIFA World Cup in Qatar heats up.
Korsah has emerged as one of the leading left-backs in the country following his stellar performances with Ghana Premier League champions, Hearts of Oak since he switched camp from Ebusua Dwarfs early last month.

He has made seven appearances with the Phobians, winning the President’s Cup against Kotoko and also received the Man of the Match award in their league clash with Kotoko in Accra last month.
