Kudus, Partey and Jordan Ayew Return to Black Stars Squad Ahead of Somalia Clash

The Ghana Black Stars have received a major boost ahead of their upcoming 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers against Somalia, following the return of three experienced players: Mohammed Kudus, Thomas Partey and Jordan Ayew.

The trio are back in the national team setup after missing Ghana’s previous round of qualifying matches, giving the technical team more experienced options as the country prepares for the important double-header.

Their return is particularly significant because all three players have played important roles for the Black Stars over the years. Their experience at club and international levels could be valuable as Ghana looks to strengthen its position in the race for qualification.

Mohammed Kudus remains one of Ghana’s most exciting attacking players. The versatile midfielder is known for his ability to create chances, carry the ball forward and trouble opposing defenders with his dribbling skills. His presence gives the Black Stars another attacking option and could help improve the team’s creativity in the final third.

Thomas Partey’s return also provides additional experience and quality in midfield. The midfielder is known for his ability to control possession, break up opposition attacks and distribute the ball from deeper positions. His presence could be important in helping Ghana maintain balance between its defensive and attacking responsibilities.

Jordan Ayew is another experienced player whose return will attract attention. The forward has represented Ghana at several major tournaments and brings leadership, versatility and experience to the attacking department. His ability to link up play and contribute in different attacking positions gives the coaching staff another option.

Ghana will be hoping that the availability of these established players helps the team deliver better performances in the upcoming fixtures. The Black Stars have a responsibility to collect important points as they continue their campaign for a place at the 2027 AFCON tournament.

The return of Kudus, Partey and Ayew also creates more competition within the squad. Other players will have to fight for starting positions, while the technical team will have the opportunity to select a balanced team based on form, fitness and tactical requirements.

With the supporters expecting a strong response from the national team, attention will now turn to how the returning stars combine with the other players in camp.

For Ghana, the objective remains clear: prepare properly, perform well and secure the results needed in the qualification campaign. The return of three experienced internationals adds another important talking point ahead of the Somalia fixtures.
