John Mensah to visit Ghana squad

Injured John Mensah intends to visit his Ghana team mates before Friday's World Cup qualifier against Lesotho.

Mensah hopes his presence in camp can provide extra motivate for the Black Stars to win.

The Lyon ace has been left out of the double-header due to injury.

"I will pass through the team’s camp one of these days to wish them well ahead of Friday’s game," Mensah told the Daily Guide.

"I am recovering at a very fast pace but decided to allow myself to be healed completely so I can give my best shot.

''I have more than enough confidence in both the playing body and the new technical team to deliver. It's a blend of new faces and the senior ones.

“I have been in talks with most of the players and indications are that they are bent on starting the World Cup campaign on a bright note."
