Richard Kingson<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Goalkeeper Richard Kingson or John Paintsil will captain Ghana when they clash with South Korea in a friendly in Seoul on Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That is because substantive captain John Mensah has been ruled out of the game after suffering a knock during Friday\u2019s clash against Congo.<\/p>\n

His permanent assistant Michael Essien will also not be available for the game after being excused for the trip to the Asian country.<\/p>\n

This means those next in line will be allowed to captain the team in Seoul.<\/p>\n

Kingson captained the side in the absence of Mensah and Essien at last year\u2019s Africa Cup of Nations.<\/p>\n

Paintsil is also seen as next in line to Kingson with Sulley Muntari and Asamoah Gyan as future candidates to the post.<\/p>\n

Legendary captain Stephen Appiah retired from international football after last year\u2019s World Cup in South Africa.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
