Former Ghana international, Yaw Preko has lauded Chris Hughton's decision to maintain the core of Black Stars' squad for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations [AFCON] qualifiers against Angola.
The 64-year-old on Thursday announced a 25-man squad for the doubleheader against the Palancras in the matchday three and four games.
Most of the players that played at the World Cup still have their names in the squad with the exception of Baba Rahman, Danlad Ibrahim, Daniel Afriyie Barnieh and Fatawu Issahaku.
And according to Preko, the decision to maintain the core of the team is the best thing to do.
“I believe he is being cautious in the call-up not to invite players he does not know much," he told Kumasi-based Oyerepa FM.
"As time goes on he might do changes but for now, I do not think he needs to rush and do changes in the squad.
"He will use this match to have a core team he can build on so for now I do not think people should begrudge him for the players he has invited," he added," the former Great Olympics coach added.
Ghana will host Angola at the Baba Yara Stadium on March 23 before travelling to Luanda for the reverse leg in four days' time.
The Black Stars are joint top of Group E alongside Angola with both teams with four points after two games.
