Asante Kotoko midfielder Emmanuel Antwi and Nations FC centre-back Razak Simpson have been called for Ghana’s Afcon 2025 qualifiers against Angola and Niger.
Head coach Otto Addo announced his team for the two final games in mid-November.
Antwi, a pivotal member of the Asante Kotoko midfield since signing ahead of the 2024/25 season from Great Olympics.
The young midfielder scored a stunning long-range in Kotoko’s 1-1 stalemate against Young Apostles on opening day of the Ghana Premier League.
His impact has urged the Reds to third on the league log as they continue their pursuit of the league title after ten games.
For Simpson, who has been a team leader and an important figure at the heart of the Nations FC since their promotion in 2023, the callup to the Black Stars heralds his consistency in the top-flight league.
The centre-back claimed over six Man of the Match awards in the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League season and has been superb since the 2024/25 league commenced.
Samartex left-back Ebenezer Afful remains in the setup as he was called for Ghana’s previous matches against Sudan.
The Black Stars of Ghana will first play against Angola in an away game, and then battle Niger in Accra.
