Christopher Antwi-Adjei has joined Black Stars teammates in camp which is a morale booster to coach Kwesi Appiah in the wake of recent injuries suffered by his call-ups.
The Paderborn's attacker was among the 7 players handed a debut call-up by Kwesi Appiah for Ghana's doubleheader for the AFCON 2021 qualifiers against South Africa and Sao Tome and Principe.
However, due to documentation issues, his arrival to Black Stars camp delayed and the Ghana Football Association has revealed that the German-based Wideman is in town but will not be included in today's clash against Bafana Bafana at the Cape Coast Stadium.
"SC Paderborn's Christopher Antwi-Adjei has arrived in the country and he's on his way to the Black Stars camp in Cape Coast from Accra. He will, however, not be part of the match-day squad against South Africa this evening due to his late arriva,''Â GFA statement read.
The GFA further announced that Ghana has suffered another blow in the lead up to today's clash as Lumor Agbenyenu torn his muscle while training.
