Ghana boosted by arrival of quintet

Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has been boosted by the arrival of his five remaining players at their training camp in Ethiopia ahead of Friday's World Cup qualifier against Sudan.

DR Congo-based duo of Solomon Asante and Richard Kissi Boateng as well as the Evian duo of Mohammed Rabiu and Jonathan Mensah and Mubarak Wakaso joined camp on Monday.

The arrival of the quintet means the Black Stars have a full house going into Tuesday's training session in Addis Ababa.

The Black Stars have been training in the Ethiopian capital since Friday in preparation for the key match without the five players.

The five players delayed their arrival because of club commitments. And the squad have no injury worries.

Ghana will play Sudan in a Group D qualifier on Friday in Omdurman.

The Black Stars, chasing a third consecutive appearance at the World Cup finals are just one point adrift leaders, Zambia with three matches left to play in the second round of qualifying.

The team Ghana will depart the East African country for Khartoum on Wednesday.
