The likes of Alfred Duncan, Jeffrey Schlupp and Kingsley Sarfo are reportedly on the radar of the former Ghana defender for the Nigeria clash.

Alfred Duncan has been an ever present for Fiorentina having made 20 appearances and scoring a goal while Jeffrey Schlupp’s Crystal Palace career has been a start stop with injuries limiting him.

Kingsley Sarfo has rediscovered his love for football in Cyprus with Apoel Nicosia on loan from Appolon Nicosia.

Meanwhile, Ajax and Ghana midfielder, Mohammed Kudus has reiterated that he is fit and ready to return to full action.

Kudus suffered a rib injury during the 2022 World Cup qualifiers against South Africa at the Cape Coast Stadium. The former FC Nordsjaelland midfielder however returned to action in Ajax’s 5-0 win over FC Twente last weekend.

Speaking to the club’s media, the former Right to Dream Academy graduate reiterated that he has been unlucky but feels fit and ready to play.

“I played 45 minutes for Jong Ajax the last time, 60 minutes and getting some minutes in the first team as well, so now I feel 100% fine,” he said.
