Attamah Lawerh is one of the notable returnees in the Black Stars squad.
Hughton has until January 3 to finalise his selection, reducing the squad to the final 27 players for the tournament.
The former Tema Youth star will hope to make the cut for the major tournament to be staged in Ivory Coast next month.

However, they have experienced defeat in three finals since then, including losses to Ivory Coast in 1992 on penalties and Egypt in 2010, as well as a repeat defeat to Ivory Coast in 2015.
