Uganda coach Milutin Sredejovic has named a 30-man squad to face Ghana

Uganda coach Milutin Sredejovic has announced a 30-man squad to face Ghana's Black Stars next month in their opening Group E encounter of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier.

The Cranes have planned to camp in Togo where they will play the Sparrow Hawks in an international friendly before meeting the Black Stars in Tamale.

The Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) believes the training camp in West Africa will help them acclimatize and check the state of players physically and technically.

Uganda are on cloud nine after breaking a 38-year-old barricade by qualifying for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations to be staged in Gabon between January-February 2017.

Uganda squad to face Ghana next month:

Goalkeepers: Denis Onyango Jamal Salim Benjamin Ochan Isma Watenga Defenders: Nicholas Wadada Denis Iguma Joseph Ochaya Godfrey Walusimbi Isaac Isinde Murushid Jjuko Joseph Nsubuga Timothy Awanyi Khalid Lwaliwa Rashid Toha Midfielders: Tony Mawejje Mike Azira Khalid Aucho Geoffrey Kizito Moses Oloya Ivan Ntege Wiliam Luwagga Kizito Abdmalik Lubegitalis Strikers: Geoffrey Massa Farouk Miya Emanuel Okwi Yunus Sentamu Khamis Kiiza Mohamed Shaban Edrisa Lubega
