Black Stars captain
Andre Ayew, Crystal Palace duo Jordan Ayew and
Jeffrey Schlupp, Thomas Partey, Tariq Fosu are likely to miss the game should their
clubs block their move during the international break.
As part of the UK
COVID-19 protocols, anyone that returns from countries on the Red List must
quarantine in an airport hotel for 10 days, with no exemptions for elite
athletes which many Premier League managers and
coaches have raised concerns and
are unhappy
about.
Most coaches at this
point in the season are not willing to release players for the upcoming
international break due to the COVID-19 risk and quarantine regulations.
Thus clubs have the sole autonomy whether to
release players or not which is backed by FIFA’s current regulations on
releasing players amid the pandemic.
The Black Stars coach
with the possibility of missing out on invited
players is preparing with a squad dominated by locally based players ahead of the double-header.
The team broke camp
on Wednesday and will reassemble after the league matches this weekend.
Ghana travel away
to play South Africa on March 25, 2021.
