Black Stars Coach Avram Grant has been ordered to review his squad after the Ministry of Youth and Sports reportedly hinted their inability to fund the plane tickets of the foreign-based players.

According to a ghanasportsonline report, the order is to help ease the financial burden the Black Stars brings to bear Ministry. 

Coach Avram Grant has named a 23-man squad which was made up of 21 foreign-based players and 2 local players for the Black Stars'  2017 Cup of Nations qualifier against the Amavubis of Rwanda on September 3 in Accra.

But he may be forced to rely on a squad constituted of entirely locally-based players.
