Accra Hearts of Oak defender Dennis Korsah has been invited to join the Black Stars for the Africa Cup of Nations Cote D’Ivoire 2023 Match Day 2 qualifier against Central African Republic.

The left back who was initially not part of the squad for the first match on Wednesday has been given an opportunity to fight for a place in the team ahead of the clash on Sunday.

Korsah earned his first national team call-up in March this year ahead of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 qualifying playoff against Nigeria.

The Black Stars were off to a flying start on Wednesday following a 3-0 win over Madagascar at the Cape Coast stadium – a win that took Ghana to the top of Group E as Angola came from behind to beat Central African Republic 2-1 in the other Group E match.

The Black Stars have arrived in Accra to continue with preparations towards the Match Day 2 encounter on Sunday.
