2022 World Cup: Versatile Jeffrey Schlupp returns to Black Stars squad ahead of Qatar tournament

Published on: 04 November 2022

Crystal Palace defender, Jeffrey Schlupp is one of 55 players named in the provisional Ghana squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup tournament in Qatar.

Late last month, FIFA directed all qualified countries to furnish it with a 55-man provisional squad for the upcoming tournament.

Although the Ghana FA decided to hold onto the list after it was submitted to FIFA, it has today unveiled all the players selected by Black Stars head coach Otto Addo.

The squad has five goalkeepers, 17 defenders, 14 midfielders, 13 wingers, and six strikers.

After making a good case for a call-up in the last few months with his top performances in the English Premier League, Jeffrey Schlupp has been named in the provisional squad.

He is one of the defenders who will, fortunately, have the privilege to play for the Black Stars at the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

The discretion, however, is in the hands of Ghana head coach Otto Addo and his technical staff.

At the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Ghana has been pitted in Group H where the Black Stars will face their counterpart from Portugal, Uruguay, and South Korea.
