Ghana’s head coach, Kwasi Appiah, has named striker Mahatma Otoo of Norwegian side, Sogndal, and three others in a four-man stand-by list for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
Goalkeeper Razak Brimah of Spanish side Córdoba CF, Kumasi Asante Kotoko defender Kwabena Adusei and Sassuolo midfielder Yusif Chibsah Rahman were included in the stand-by and the provisional list of 30 submitted to FIFA by the GFA.
The four players will not train with the team in Accra or travel with the team during their training tour of Holland and the United States of America.
Appiah named his squad for the 2014 World Cup last week, releasing the 26 names set to begin preparation tomorrow. He has until June 2 to trim down their selection to the final 23-man squad to compete at the tournament.
In the event of a last-minute change, any of the players on standby can be drafted into the final team for the World Cup.
