AFCON 2027Q: Kofi Kyereh ‘ready’ to play after Black Stars recall for Somalia games

Black Stars midfielder Daniel-Kofi Kyereh says he is excited about his return to the national team after a long absence due to an injury. The VfL Osnabrück midfielder is in life for a return to the Black Stars team for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers after being spotted at the Accra International Airport on Sunday evening.

Black Stars midfielder Daniel-Kofi Kyereh says he is excited about his return to the national team after a long absence due to an injury.

Kofi Kyereh was out for almost three years after suffering a third career anterior cruciate ligament injury, which kept him out of action for an extended period.

The VfL Osnabrück midfielder is in life for a return to the Black Stars team for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers after being spotted at the Accra International Airport on Sunday evening.

The 30-year-old revealed his readiness to get going again with the national team after a long time out.

"It's been a long time. I am happy to be back, and I can't wait to see them all. I am ready to play," he told the media in a short interaction at the airport.

Kyereh has made a good start to life in the 2. Bundesliga this season, scoring two goals and providing one assist in nine games.

Ghana face Somalia on Thursday, November 12, at the Essipong Sports Stadium in Sekondi before playing the reverse fixture four days later.
