Ghana coach Avram Grant yet to announce pre-AFCON friendly opponents

Ghana coach Avram Grant is working round the clock to secure friendly games for his side when they arrive in Spain for pre-AFCON camping.

The ex-Chelsea boss opted for Spain as the base to trim his squad for the tournament which starts on 17 January in Equatorial Guinea.

Ghana’s Group C opponents, Senegal, Algeria and South Africa, have all outlined their training schedules and friendly matches.

But the Black Stars are yet to finalize their training plans.

“Grant is well connected in Spain and is working on securing friendly games for the team to prepare them for the AFCON competition,” Ghana FA Protocol Officer Alex Asante told GHANASoccernet.com

Grant is expected back in Ghana on the 28 December to begin work ahead of the trip to Spain.
