The Black Stars of Ghana will be without star winger, Mohammed Kudus, for their upcoming friendlies against Nigeria and Uganda.
The West Ham United star is currently sidelined with a shoulder issue.
The former Ajax player was named in coach Otto Addo’s 26-man squad for the friendlies last weekend.
The 23-year-old sustained the injury in West Ham United’s Premier League clash with Aston Villa last weekend.
Although he completed the full 90 minutes of the match against Aston Villa at the London Stadium, Kudus reportedly experienced pain post-match.
The talented winger opted to remain in London for his recovery.
Kudus joins defender Nathaniel Adjei in withdrawing from the squad.
Meanwhile, the Black Stars had their first training session in Morocco ahead of the international friendly fixture against the Super Eagles.
Ghana and Nigeria will re-ignite their rivalry on Friday in Morocco in an international friendly game after varying levels of success at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations. While Nigeria finished second after losing to hosts Ivory Coast in the final, Ghana were ousted in the group stage.
Sixteen players took part in the Black Stars first training session namely Tariq Lamptey, Lawrence Ati-Zigi, Andre Ayew, Jordan Ayew, Kasim Nuhu, Antoine Semenyo, Abdul Samed Salis, Patrick Kpozo, Alidu Seidu, Joseph Wollacott, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, Denis Odoi, Ernest Nuamah, Osman Ibrahim, Abdulai Nurudeen and Fredrick Asare.
