Ghana coach, Maxwell Konadu, has settled on his 20-man list for the 2015 Cosafa Cup tournament currently underway in South Africa.
Konadu, who is leading the home-based group of the Black Stars as the tournament’s guest, has drawn out a strong squad comprising the Ghana Premier League’s finest top scorer Nathaniel Asamoah, former Maritzburg forward Yakubu Mohammed and Fatau Dauda, who last played for South African clubs Orlando Pirates and Chippa United.
