2023 CHAN Q: Hearts of Oak keeper Richard Attah, Dreams FC duo dropped from Black Galaxies squad ahead of Benin clash

Hearts of Oak goalkeeper, Richard Attah has been dropped from Black Galaxies squad for the upcoming CHAN qualifier against Benin.

Attah was among 35 players who were called to camp ahead of the game by head coach Annor Walker.

Annor Walker will settle on Asante Kotoko goalie Ibrahim Danlad, Bechem United’s Abdulai Iddrisu and Great Olympics’ Stephen Kwaku as goalkeepers for the qualifier.

Other players who have been dropped are Dreams FC duo Maxwell Arthur and Abdalah Ibrahim. Walker is expected to drop more players in the coming days.

However, Hearts of Oak midfielder Gladson Awako has earned a late-call up to join the team and has made the final squad.

The Black Galaxies will play Benin in the preliminary stage of the qualifiers in search of a ticket to the biennial competition scheduled for Algeria in January 2023.

Ghana have failed to qualify for the tournament in the last three editions and will hope to make another appearance this time around. The Black Stars ‘B’ finished 2nd in 2009 and in 2014.
