Four Malian players have been ruled out for Friday’s friendly against Ghana after testing positive for coronavirus.
Molla Wague, Hamidou Traore, Aly Yirango and Aboubacar ‘Kiki’ Kouyate tested positive at the team’s camp base in Antalya, Turkey.
Head coach Mohammed Mogassouba will have to modify his plans against the Black Stars.
Ghana has reported a healthy squad for the match, but head coach CK Akonnor will not have Jeffrey Schlupp, Kudus Mohammed, Lumor Agbenyenu, Richard Ofori and John Antwi for the match.
Schlupp and Kudus are currently suffering injuries, hence their absence, while the rest were unable to obtain visas.
The players have been replaced by Enock Kwateng, Caleb Ekuban, Tariqe Fosu and Joseph Paintsil.
The four-time African champions will face the 2022 World Cup hosts, Qatar, on Monday, October 12.
