He dazzled well in the game and gave accurate account of himself in that away win. He is not in any mood to slip at this stage where Coach Otto Addo is keeping close eyes on Ghanaian players abroad.

The Black Stars gaffer Otto Addo has stated categorically that players will only be considered for selection based on their current form and fitness but not fame or past record.

This has challenged every player to lift himself above board whenever they are in action.

Christopher Bonsu Baah has on few occasions been called into the Black Stars team and he justified his inclusion with excellent display.

Having missed the ongoing 2025 AFCON in Morocco together with his Black Stars teammates, the 2026 FIFA World Cup obviously remains his number one target.

As 2026 FIFA World Cup draws nearer, Ghanaian players abroad are working around the clock to improve their match fitness and form in order to catch eyes of Coach Otto Addo.

Two of such players are Black Stars captain Jordan Ayew and intelligent attacker Fatawu Issahaku.

The Leicester City duo are gradually making waves in the 2025/26 English Championship to the admiration of Leicester City fans.

The left footed attacker, Issahaku has constantly suffered injury setbacks since joining Leicester. This has hindered the massive progress most people tipped him to make in his football career.

Thankfully, he is back to full form and has started showing his exploits with any chance he gets.

In addition to his recent amazing goals, Issahaku was on target when Leicester beat West Brom 2-1 at King Power Stadium in the English Championship on Monday, 5th January, 2026.

His teammate, Jordan Ayew had opened the scoring before Issahaku secured the match winner after West Brom had come on level terms.

Their scoring form excites Ghanaians and the technical staff of Black Stars ahead of the FIFA World Cup.

Rugged center back Mohammed Salisu might miss the much touted 2026 FIFA World Cup after picking Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury while in action in the French League 1.

His club, Monaco, has confirmed that the Ghanaian international will miss the remainder of their league campaign following that ACL injury in Lyon loss. Barring any miracle, Mohammed Salisu will miss the 2026 World Cup scheduled for June – July.

Mohammed Salisu received his first national team call-up before the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup.

After putting up an impressive show for the Black Stars in some trial matches on the verge of the 2022 World Cup, he went ahead to excel in the tournament itself.

He scored the first goal from a header when the Black Stars beat South Korea 3-2 in their second group game.

Since then the strong central defender has not looked back. His pair with Alexander Djiku at the Black Stars rear guard has been solid.

They were the major reason why the Black Stars lost only a game in 10 World Cup qualifying matches.

After his side, Southampton was relegated from the English Premier League last two seasons, Mohammed Salisu moved to Monaco and has so far had a wonderful spell with the French side until his recent injury which seems to be a big blow to Coach Otto Addo.

Black Stars midfield gem Kwasi Sibo is happy to have started enjoying regular play for Real Oviedo in the 2025/26 Spanish La Liga.

Kwasi Sibo, since the appointment of Uruguayan coach, Guillermo Almada, has played 90 minutes in his first two games under the new tactician.

This is a feat he has achieved after 4 months following the September international break when he started against Elche and has since warmed the bench in La Liga games under his former manager Luis Carrion.

The hard working midfielder played the entire game when Real Oviedo drew goalless at home against Real Betis in match day 17 of the Spanish La Liga.

He was also in full action in match day 18 when Oviedo drew 1-1 against Alavez away.

Real Oviedo are currently languishing at the bottom of the Spanish La Liga table with a disappointing 12 points from 18 games. They have won only two, drawn 6 and lost an amazing 10 games.

Despite this poor run in the season, Kwasi Sibo is positive about the future of his club.

His focus for now is to maintain a consistent performance and carve a niche for himself at Oviedo and the Black Stars as they gear up for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Kwasi Sibo was pivotal in the Black Stars last FIFA qualifying matches. He remains coach Otto Addo’s first choice midfielder. He obviously needs to work extra hard to cement his position in the team looking at the quality midfielders around.
