Atletico Madrid ace Thomas Partey is set to continue his role as interim Ghana captain for the 2019 African Cup of Nations qualifier against Kenya.

Although earlier reports in the local media suggested Kwadwo Asamoah, who is the senior most player in the current squad will wear the armband in the absence of Asamoah Gyan and Andre Ayew.

The Inter Milan star is not keen on it while coaches don’t want to rock the boat because of the leadership qualities of Partey.

Ghana are in Nairobi to play the Harambee Stars at the Kasarani Stadium on Saturday.
