2025 AFCON Q: Ghana coach Otto Addo set to name squad for Angola, Niger games

Ghana’s Black Stars head coach, Otto Addo, is set to announce his squad for the final two matches of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers later this week.

The team is in a high-stakes situation, needing two victories to keep their slim hopes of qualification alive.

Ghana’s last two matches in Group F are against Angola on November 15 and Niger on November 18.

Unfortunately, the Black Stars’ performance in the qualifiers has been disappointing so far.

After four matches, they have only managed to secure two points, having drawn two games and suffered two losses.

With only these last two fixtures remaining, Ghana’s chances of qualifying for the tournament in Morocco are hanging by a thread.

To secure a spot, the team must win both games and rely on Sudan losing both of its final matches. Coach Addo is expected to announce a 25-man squad on Friday, November 8. While it is likely that his selection will include key regulars, there is speculation that some standout local players may also receive call-ups to bring fresh energy and depth to the team.

With both matches potentially impacting the Black Stars’ AFCON future, all eyes will be on Otto Addo’s selections and the team’s performance in these crucial encounters.
