In a shocking turn of events, the Black Stars are set to tackle their last AFCON qualifying match without four key players, including team captain Jordan Ayew. After sustaining a knee injury during their recent clash with Angola, Ayew's absence leaves a significant gap in Ghana's lineup.

Joining him on the sidelines are Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, Alidu Seidu, and Gideon Mensah, all ruled out due to injuries. While Ghana has already missed the AFCON 2025 boat, this match against Niger remains crucial for the latter's qualification hopes. New players are stepping in, but can they fill the void?
