Ghana coach Avram Grant is expected to name his team that will play in the Africa Cup of Nations by Monday following days of delay.

The Israeli coach is expected in the country this weekend to defend his squad before he finally makes it public.

Regular names like Mubarak Wakaso, Baba Rahman, Asamoah Gyan, and Jonathan Mensah are all expected to be in the team.

Qatar-based Rashid Sumaila and Schalke 04 striker Bernard Tepketey are all expected to make the team for the Africa Cup of Nations.
