Confusion Brewing In Stars' Camp.

Signals from the Black Stars' camp, indicates that there is lack of communication between the foreign based players, the Technical team and F.A officials.

According to the captain of the team, C.K Akunnor, he is yet to hear from the Ghanaian authorities, where the foreign based players would be lodging when they arrive in Sudan for their World Cup Qualifier against the Sudanese on Sunday.

The foreign based players are expected to join their local counterparts who leave Accra for Sudan today via Addis Ababa, (Ethiopia).

C.K Akunnor intimated that, apart Emmanuel Duah and himself who have confirmed their readiness to play on Sunday, he has no idea as to who else would join the team in Sudan.

He however indicated his readiness to convince his colleague, Otto Addo, to turn up for Sunday's game.

C.K as he is popularly referred to, expressed his surprise at the absence of Kwame Ayew and Hans Adu-Sarpei on Jones' list this time. The two were invited during the Black Stars' match against Liberia a fortnight ago.

He added that, there is a problem with organisation saying, " although some of the players are ready others are not."

Meanwhile, the Black Stars head coach, Jones Cecil Attuquayefio has issued a statement regarding the Black Stars' preparations towards their game against the Sudanese on Sunday.
