Black Stars technical advisor, Chris Hughton believes that the friendly games will allow the new players to integrate into the team before the World Cup.

Ghana have lined up two friendlies later this month against Brazil and Nicaragua. 

 
The final friendly will be against Switzerland, some days before the start of the World Cup in November.
 
Ghana will face Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea in the group stages of the mundial.
 
Mohammed Salisu, Tariq Lamptey, Stephen Ambrosius, Ransford Yeboah and Inaki Williams have all been handed their maiden call-up to the Black Stars.
 
Chris Hughton says the friendlies will allow the technical team to integrate the new players into the Black Stars.
 
"We've two games this month... it's important for the new players to acclimatize themselves into the squad, to integrate into the squad... so it's important," he said.
 
"Of course we've a gap in October and of course all international manager or coaches will be hoping that we don't pick up any injuries and the last friendly before the first game against Portugal will be hugely important for us," he added.
