James Kwesi Appiah, Ghanaian coach has sidelined the fantastic three, Captain Asamoah Gyan and Ayew brothers, Jordan and Andre ahead of their clash with Harambee Stars during the weekend fixture.
Head coach Appiah said that he wanted to have fresh blood on the pitch.
“Ghana has a lot of players and I’m trying to know the team now, my intentions are not based on qualifying for Afcon but I am looking further than that,” he said
The only way we can do that is by bringing in new players, give them chance to play and prove to Ghanaians that they indeed deserve to be in the team. At the moment if one or two players are not invited, it doesn’t mean they are not in the team but it’s because other players are being tried,” added Appiah.
Appiah also praised Kenyan side as one of the competitors not to underestimate.
“We can never underrate them, I know it’s not going to be easy because they play in front of home supporters, but I will put out a team that will give a good show.”
