Appiah, who is overseeing Ghana's two-leg tie against Nigeria, has named a 31-man squad to begin preparations on Monday at the Tema Sports Stadium. Some members of the Under-20 team which won the World Youth Championship in Egypt two years ago have been called up. "We hope to make good preparations and be ready for the first leg game. The squad is a blend of both local and foreign players and we hope to get the best out of every player," Appiah told www.ghanafa.org.
