Ghana Football Association has cancelled next month’s international friendly against Kenya. According to a letter sent to Kenya Football Federation, the development is due to the inability of Coach Kwesi Appiah to raise a strong squad for the assignment.

The date of the World Cup qualifiers has been brought forward by one day to June 7. The friendly match was expected to serve as a build- up preparation for both team’s Brazil 2014 World Cup qualifiers against Sudan and Nigeria, later next month. A Kenya FA official Hussein Terry disclosed to Goal.com, saying: “We have received a letter from Ghana FA informing us they cannot be able to honour the match due to the difficulties they are experiencing in raising a team. “They remain doubtful especially on the availability of some of their professional players.” Ghana is due to commence camping on May 30th before flying over to Nairobi for acclimatization.
