USA Squad For Friendly Game Against Ghana

US Men’s national team coach, Gregg Berhalter has announced a strong 23-man squad for the international friendly against Ghana in Charlotte later this month.

The two countries will renew their rivalry with a friendly encounter on October 14, 2023, at the Pratt & Whitney Stadium at Rentschler Field.

Headlining the US team is an American-born Ghanaian, who plays for AC Milan, Yunus Musah alongside Timothy Weah, son of Liberia President George Weah.

Skipper for the side, Christian Pulisic and AS Monaco’s Folarin Balogun all make the team.

Meanwhile, the Black Stars will travel to the United States without captain, Andre Ayew, who has been dropped for the game and the friendly against Mexico.

However, Thomas Partey and Tariq Lamptey returned to the team after missing the AFCON qualifier against the Central African Republic.
