Ghana midfielder, Majeed Ashimeru was in high spirits when the Black Stars trained at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium against Angola in the qualifiers for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament.

The RSC Anderlecht's midfielder is one of the midfielders invited by new Black Stars head coach Chris Hughton for the two matches against Angola.

He was a joy to watch with his deft touches and showed that he can be an asset for the Black Stars.

With another chance in the Black Stars in the international break, the midfielder has set sight on working harder to earn a permanent place in the national team under new head coach Chris Hughton.

Ghana on Thursday, March 23, will host Angola at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium. The 2023 AFCON qualification match will kick off at 16:00GMT.

The senior national team is in Kumasi continuing preparations for the AFCON 2023.
