Olympique Lyon winger Ernest Nuamah has made his return to the Black Stars squad for Ghana's vital doubleheader against Sudan in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers. 

Head coach Otto Addo has called up the skillful attacker, who missed the previous matches due to injury, as the national team prepares for these decisive encounters this month.

Ghana's Group F qualification campaign began in September with mixed results, suffering a narrow 1-0 loss to Angola in Kumasi, followed by a 1-1 draw against Niger in an away fixture. Nuamah was sidelined during this period, but now fully fit, he is set to bolster the Black Stars' attacking lineup.

His return adds an exciting dimension to Ghana's offensive options, and he is expected to play a pivotal role in helping the team secure all six points from the two matches against Sudan. Currently sitting third in Group F, Ghana urgently needs maximum points to improve their chances of qualifying for the 2025 AFCON, scheduled to take place in Morocco.

The stakes are high, and the Black Stars will be counting on players like Ernest Nuamah to make a significant impact in these upcoming fixtures.

The games against Sudan are set for October 10 and October 15, with Ghana aiming to climb the group standings and solidify their path to qualification.
