Inaki Williams has been named in the Black Stars’ squad for the upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
The Athletic Bilbao forward, who missed Ghana’s World Cup qualifiers against Mali and the Central African Republic in June due to a foot injury, is set to make his return following successful surgery.
Despite Williams’ absence, the Black Stars achieved back-to-back victories in those World Cup qualifiers.
Since his recovery, Williams has returned to form, playing against Getafe, Barcelona, and Valencia in Athletic Bilbao’s opening La Liga matches of the season.
Ghana will face Palancas Negras at the Baba Yara Stadium on September 5 and will then travel to Niger for their second qualifier on September 9.
Coach Otto Addo is expected to announce his final squad for these fixtures today. Notably, no players from the Ghana Premier League have been included in this squad.
The Black Stars are determined to secure one of the top two positions in Group F to advance to the AFCON tournament, which is scheduled to run from December 21, 2025, to January 18, 2026.
