Milovan names provisional squad for Zimbabwe assignment
Ghana’s new head coach, Milovan Rajevac has named a 32-man provisional squad for October’s World Cup qualifying double-header against Zimbabwe.
Since assuming the role last week, the coach has gone straight to work and has assembled a 32-man provisional squad to prepare for the double-header against Zimbabwe next month. Ghana’s group is closely knitted at the top with only a point separating the first to third teams after two rounds of matches with Zimbabwe the only side yet to record a win.
Included in the squad are Jojo Wallocott of Swindon Town and Benjamin Tetteh of Yeni Malatyaspor who will be hoping to make their debut. Meanwhile, Milovan will have some familiar faces in his squad in the persons of Jonathan Mensah and Andre Ayew who were both in the 2010 World Cup squad. Thomas Partey, Mohammed Kudus, Danlad Ibrahim and Alfred Duncan all make their return to the squad.
