Ghana have been boosted by the availability of Kassim Nuhu for the clash against Tunisia in the last 16 of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.

The TSG Hoffenheim centre back returns after serving out his suspension in Tuesday's 2-0 win over Guinea-Bissau in the final Group F clash.

Nuhu accumulated two yellow cards in the matches against Benin and Cameroon.

Coach Kwesi Appiah would be delighted to be able to count on the reliable defender for the clash against the Carthage Eagles.

The Round of 16 fixture is set for Ismailia Stadium on Monday, July 8.

Ghana are seeking to end a 37-year wait for an African title, having last won the trophy in 1982.
