Video analyst Gerard Nuus and physical trainer Jemie Lawrence have been added to the technical team of the Black Stars for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations.

Gerard Nuus who currently works as a video analyst with Spanish outfit Rayo Vallecano will be charged with keeping tabs on the players during training and matches to help improve them.

Jamaican physical trainer, Jemie Lawrence will also be part of Avram Grant’s backroom staff for the one-month tournament in Gabon. He is also expected to help improve the fitness levels of the Black Stars players.

The pair are expected to join the Black Stars when they pitch camp in the United Arab Emirates on 2nd January, 2017.

Ghana has been paired in Group B together with Egypt, Uganda and Mali - to be based in Port Gentil.
