Ghana will have to clear the final hurdle in the qualifications stage and Arhinful believes that the inclusion of Tariq Lamptey and Mohammed Salisu in the team for the games in March 2022.
“We need to approach Mohammed Salisu to come and play for us, we need him to come. Let’s contact Samuel Kuffuor, Tony Baffour to do this job for us.”
“Let them go there and speak with him. In defense, we got a problem. We need our best players out there to come and represent us. He is a solid defender and a good passer of the ball.”
“We need Tariq Lamptey of Brighton. He is also an option for us at the right-back. I would have told him that if he is looking to play for England there isn’t a chance at a national level so he should consider Ghana, which will help him in his CV. If it is the father, you must get through to him then let’s do it,” he told Happy FM in an interview.
