Newly appointed Black Stars head coach, Chris Hughton, took charge of his first training session on Monday at the Accra Sports Stadium, hours after his unveiling.
The former Brighton and Hove Albion manager was officially presented as the Ghana head coach at the SG Mall after signing a 21-month deal to take charge of the four-time Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) winners.
Eight players took part in a light training session to warm up for the intense preparations in Kumasi ahead of the Angola 2023 AFCON qualifying doubleheader.
More players have since arrived, taking the numbers up to 17 players. The full squad is expected to arrive in Kumasi on Tuesday afternoon and train in the evening.
Ghana will play against the Palancas Negras at Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Thursday in round 3 of the 2023 AFCON qualifiers before the reverse fixtures come four days later in Luanda.
