Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has confirmed there will be no replacement for the injured Musah Nuhu.

The St. Gallen defender dropped out of Black Stars squad after picking up a knee injury during training last Wednesday.

Nuhu’s absence brings coach Kwasi Appiah’s provisional list to 28 instead of the 29 man squad named to commence preparation for the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt next month.

Several media reports have suggested another centre back could be called to fill in the void, but the Black Stars boss insists he is satisfied with the denfensive cover already in the squad.

"By God's grace everything is going well, except Nuhu who got injured yesterday (Wednesday)," Appiah told Graphic Sports Online.

"He had a knee injury and the club has requested he comes to Switzerland for assessment,"

"There will be no replacement because we are now 28 players in camp," the Stars coach explained.
