Thomas Partey alongside the Ayew brothers trained with the Black Stars on Friday evening as Ghana prepares for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying match against Sao Tome & Principe.

The West African giants having drawn 1-1 with the Bafana Bafana of South Africa on Thursday evening, have booked a place at the 2021 AFCON tournament scheduled to be staged in Cameroon next January.

In that game, Andre Ayew, Jordan Ayew, and Thomas Partey had to sit out as a result of an agreement between their clubs in England and the Ghana FA necessitated by the Coronavirus pandemic and its situation in South Africa.

Handed the go-ahead to play for Ghana in the home match, the three players have today had a training session with their compatriots ahead of this weekend’s encounter against Sao Tome.

The clash will be played at the Accra Sports Stadium and will kick-off at 16:00GMT.
