Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac is expected to announce his provisional list for the upcoming 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
The 67-year-old will name a 26-man squad on Monday after rejecting the Ghana Football Association (GFA)’s proposal to invite 40 players for camping next week.
The GFA had wanted 40 players in camp to boost Rajevac’s options when naming his final squad.
But Rajevac’s mind is made up in terms of the players he wants to take to the Central African country next month.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) increased the number of additional players to five so teams can name a maximum of the 28-man squad due to coronavirus.
Ghana will open a camp in Doha, Qatar on December 23. While in the Asian country, they will play three preparatory games.
