Four Ghanaian World Cup absentees that Chris Hughton could depend on

Paintsil, Nuamah, Schlupp, Randsford Yeboah

Ghana’s 2022 FIFA World Cup squad announcement caused a lot of people to be angry because some of the people who were supposed to be on the team weren’t chosen.

Many people argued that some people who were nominated for the squad weren’t included, and they couldn’t understand why.

The new manager for the Black Stars is Chris Hughton.

Hughton was part of the decision-making process when it came to the squad announcement, but now the final decision is in his hands.

Audacious (boldnews) assembled four players who didn’t make the World Cup final squad, but who Chris Hughton believes will be key to the team’s success.

Joseph Paintsil was not selected for the final squad of the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Many Ghanaians were disappointed because he was playing very well for his club, Genk.

Paintsil had trouble getting along with his old manager, Otto Addo, and when Chris Hughton took over, the player finally felt like he was able to get back into the team.

The most in-form Ghanaian footballer currently playing in Europe is Hughton’s main striker.

Jeffrey Schlupp is a very good player who is very skilled at playing football.

One of the players who didn’t make the final was Jeffrey Schlupp. Jeffrey Schlupp was very sad about it and he looked really angry.

Schlupp’s manager let off steam on social media, writing that his client would not accept any future call-up.

Chris Hughton, who spent his entire football career playing in the UK, is a good coach and could help reassure Schlupp that he still has a place in the team.

Schlupp is a very good player who can play in a number of positions. He would be a great addition to the the team

Ernest Nuamah was a Ghanaian youngster who had a very successful year in 2022. He was included on the provisional squad for the World Cup, but he didn’t make the final list.

Nuamah is very talented and may have a breakthrough under Chris Hughton.

Ransford-YeboahYeboah was a player on the Hamburger SV wing, and he was not selected for the World Cup team.

In June of 2022, Yeboah switched his nationality to Ghana. He was really good in his first few games for Ghana, and people seemed to really like him.

Chris Hughton trusts that quality player to bring a unique set of skills to the team.
