Hughton is expected to send the list to the Ghana Football Association (GFA) for scrutiny before the final 23-man squad for the tournament is announced.

Black Stars are expected to open camp early January with the final 23-man squad expected to be announced on January 3, 2024.
Meanwhile, Ghana, who is seeking to lift its fifth continental trophy has been housed in Group B alongside Egypt, Cape Verde and Mozambique.
The Black Stars will first come up against Cape Verde at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium in Abidjan on January 14, 2024, then face Egypt at the same venue four days later and then Mozambique at the Alassane Ouattara Stadium on January 22, 2024.
