The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has downplayed concerns over the absence of Inaki Williams and Brandon Thomas-Asante for the Black Stars' upcoming friendlies against Austria and Germany, insisting the squad have more than enough attacking firepower.
Both forwards were ruled out after sustaining injuries during their respective league matches over the weekend, forcing Otto Addo to make late adjustments to his squad.
However, GFA Communications Director Henry Asante Twum believes the depth in the attacking department will cover the losses.
"Well, they have a number of options. Jordan is around. Antoine Semenyo is around. Daniel Agyei, who also earned his first call-up, is also around. Kwabena Adu Prince is also around. Aside that, we have Fatawu Issahaku. We have Kamaldeen Sulemana, and then Ransford Königsdörffer has also joined," Asante Twum told CitiSports said.
Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer was called up as a late replacement, with the Hamburg forward bringing versatility across the frontline. His inclusion, combined with the presence of captain Jordan Ayew, in-form Antoine Semenyo, and debutant Daniel Agyei, gives Otto Addo multiple tactical options.
Ghana will face Austria in Vienna on March 27 before taking on Germany in Stuttgart three days later. The matches serve as crucial preparation for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where the Black Stars have been drawn in Group L alongside England, Croatia, and Panama.
