Baba Rahman, Antoine Semenyo, and Inaki Williams are set to stage their return to the Ghanaian national team, the Black Stars, as they prepare to clash with the Central African Republic (CAR) in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

During the previous qualifier against Madagascar, these three athletes were absent due to fitness concerns. Nevertheless, they have since fully recuperated and are presently delivering standout performances in the ongoing season, building up excitement for their potential reintegration into the squad.

Left-back Baba Rahman has seamlessly adapted to his new club, PAOK, showcasing consistent brilliance on the field. Notably, his recent contributions played a pivotal role in propelling the Greek side to the subsequent round of the Europa Conference League qualifiers.

Forward Inaki Williams exhibited his form by netting an impressive goal in Athletic Bilbao’s recent 2-0 triumph over Osasuna in the Spanish La Liga. Similarly, Antoine Semenyo found the back of the net, despite Bournemouth’s loss to Liverpool in the Premier League.

The Black Stars’ coach, Chris Hughton, is likely to greet the return of these players with great enthusiasm, recognizing their potential to make significant impacts.

Their presence could prove to be crucial for the national team’s upcoming pivotal encounter against the Central African Republic, slated for September 7 at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi.
