Black Galaxies captain, Gladson Awako, has returned to training with his teammates after picking up an injury in Ghana's opening game against Madagascar at the ongoing African Nations Championship (CHAN).

The Hearts of Oak man came off in the 52nd minute of the clash after picking up a knock and was replaced by Seidu Suraj.

Ghana went ahead to lose the game 2-1 as they marked their return to the competition with a defeat.

The midfielder also missed the Black Galaxies 3-1 win over Sudan in their second group game last week, which put them in pole position for a second-place finish in Group C.

However, the 32-year-old has now resumed full training with the squad ahead of the quarterfinals which is scheduled for Saturday.

Awako trained normally with the squad on Monday, January 23, and is in line for a return to the team in the next round.

Ghana will face either Cameroon or Niger in the next round of the competition.
