Chris Hughton, the head coach of the Black Stars, has revealed that the technical team is closely monitoring all eligible players who have the potential to represent Ghana.
In recent times, there has been an increase in players switching nationalities to play for the Black Stars. The list includes Tariq Lamptey, Inaki Williams, Ransford Yeboah-Kornigsdoffer, Denis Odoi, and others.
Ghana still has the opportunity to secure the services of players such as Callum Hudson-Odoi, Eddie Nketiah, and Bradon Thomas Asante.
During a recent press conference on June 13, 2023, Hughton emphasized the coaching staff’s active observation of these players and expressed his desire to maintain a balanced squad.
“What I can tell you is that we are monitoring all of these players. Actually, what I did say about consistency is not so important for me to have the same squad for every camp. What I did say is that it’s important for me to have the balance,” he stated
Hughton acknowledged that some players are still considering their options before making a commitment to play for the Black Stars. He recognized the challenge of frequently changing the lineup, as there are players with alternative choices who have yet to finalize their decisions.
“What is difficult for me to do is that I can’t change five or six players every camp because there are other players with other options who decided that they have other options to play for the Black Stars,” Chris Hughton added.
Despite the potential changes in the squad, the coach remains open to providing opportunities for those who choose to represent Ghana.
