Former Ghana FA spokesperson Ibrahim Sannie-Daara says the inclusion of duo Daniel Afriyie Barnieh and Danlad Ibrahim in the Black Stars team ahead of the World Cup will fall into the strategy of Ghana FA boss, Kurt Okraku.
The West African powerhouse is returning to the global showpiece after missing out in Russia 2018, where France emerged winners.
In an interview with Accra-based Asempa FM monitored by Footballghana.com, the experienced Ghanaian journalist backed the duo inclusion in the Black Stars team ahead of the mundial.
“My mind is on two players, Barnieh and Danlad because their inclusion in the Black Stars will fall into the strategy of the President of Ghana Football Association (Kurt Okraku)”
“Why do I say so? If we intend to promote players from the Ghana U-20 team to the Black Stars, and now we have Fatawu Issahaku in there, then Barnieh and Danlad who were teammates at the U-20 level addition won’t be bad and it will fall into our strategy that we are promoting players and we are giving them gradual progression”
The biggest soccer mundial has been scheduled for November and December this year, with 32 countries set to battle it out for the covetous trophy in Qatar.
Ghana has been housed in Group H at the mundial against Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea.
The West African powerhouse will open their World Cup account against Portugal on November 24 before taking on Uruguay and South Korea respectively.
