Former Ghanaian International, Laryea Kingston

However, Kingston says the choice of a provisional team of 29 players just one month away from the tournament will create tension and worrying calm within the team, given that 6 players should be eliminated before the tournament. Announcement of the last 23 teams of the tournament.
"I have no problem with the team that Kwasi Appiah named, I was just waiting for Clifford Aboagye to have a chance because he had a good season." My other challenge is the number of players that he has selected.29 players, that is a lot and there is not much time left.With this, there will be a lot of tension in the camp to know who and who will be dropped The tension will not allow the players to feel relaxed and enjoy the camping, perhaps he should have selected 25 players so that losing two players is not a problem.
