Ghana's defender Kojo Peprah Oppong has provided an update on his injury situation in Ghana against Germany Pre-Word Cup friendly on March 30, 2026, in Stuttgart.
The OGC Nice centre-back saw his remarkable outing against the Europeans ruined after suffering from the injury plight and had to be subbed off on the 56th minute - a game the four-time African champions lost 2-1 to the FIFA World Cup four-time winners over the encounter.
However, with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon, the injury setback of the former IFK Norrköping rearguard has become worrisome given his reputation as a central figure in the defensive department of the Ghana national football team so far.
The Attram de Visser Soccer Academy graduate took to his lnstagram Account to address the growing concerns over his ailment thereby thanking the football fraternity for their massive support as he feels honoured to represent the country.
''Thank you all for the messages, l'm much better now. Always an honor to represent the country 100%.''
With the promising showings against Germany, Oppong has now made a strong case for himself for the final 26-man squad selection ahead of the global football event in the USA, Canada and Mexico in June this year.
He has so far won 4 caps for the Ghana national football team on the international stage since making his senior debut on October 12, 2025, against Comoros during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
