Tariq Lamptey, Daniel Kofi Kyere others likely to miss Angola doubleheader due to injury

The Black Stars will play Angola in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers during the first international break of the year.

Some athletes are presently recovering from injuries, but they might not be ready for the qualifiers in March 2023.

In the final week of March 2023, new Black Stars manager Chris Hughton is anticipated to select his team for the doubleheader.

At the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on March 23, Ghana will host Angola before leaving for the second leg four days later.

The Black Stars and Angola are tied for first place in Group E with four points each.

Here are players who would miss the games

Tariq Lamptey

Tariq Lamptey is doubtful for Ghana’s games against Angola are low due to an injury he suffered during Brighton and Hove Albion’s win over West Ham United.

The right-back was substituted on the 16-minute after what is believed to be a knee problem.

Brighton coach Roberto De Zerbi said, “It’s not a big problem. It’s a small injury.”

Daniel Kofi Kyere

Unlike Lamptey, Freiburg midfielder, Daniel Kofi is ruled out of the game after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.

His season is over and thus will not be available for the doubleheader.

Alidu Seidu

Black Stars defender, Alidu Seidu is currently going through his recovery process after suffering a meniscus injury.

Seidu has undergone surgery and is expected to be out of action for a month. Therefore, the right-back will not be available for Ghana’s AFCON qualifiers in March.
