The 2021 Africa Cup of Nations ((also referred to as AFCON 2021 or CAN 2021), known as the TotalEnergies 2021 Africa Cup of Nations for sponsorship reasons, is the 33rd edition of the Africa Cup of Nations, the biennial international men’s football championship of Africa organised by the Confederation of African Football.
Many African countries are part of the AFCON 2021 or CAN 2021 today, and Ghana too is not exceptional from the list. Ghana has seen numerous players being absent the list of squad appointed.
This article shall brief you on the list of Top 5 Players Dropped From Ghana’s Provisional AFCON Squad.
Table of Contents
Joseph Aidoo
Joseph Aidoo is the defender for Celta Vigo who had a bad game against Ethiopia during a 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifier and many knew his chances of going to Cameroon was small and that is exactly what has happened.
Afriyie Acquah
The Ghanaian player Afriyie Acquah, is the midfielder for Al-Batin FC who has been restricted to eight appearances for his new club this season and it appears the 29-year old is one of the forgotten Ghanaian players abroad. It is rather unfortunate Afriyie Acquah is part of players that are dropped from Ghana’s provisional AFCON Squad.
Caleb Ekuban
One goal in sixteen games for Genoa this season, Ekuban has struggled since making the move to Italy and we are not taken aback by his omission but certainly one of the big absentees on the list.
Richard Ofori
Richard Ofori is undergoing treatment currently. He is best known to be Ghana Number One who has been out of action for a long time at Orlando Pirates.
Ismail Abdul Ganiyu
It was announced by Milovan Rajevac as Ismail Abdul Ganiyu failed to make the cut on Tuesday. Ismail Abdul Ganiyu’s absence got many fans surprised.
