Ghana coach Avram Grant has released an 18-man squad to face Canada in an international friendly in Washington Tuesday.

Four debutants surfaced on the roster: USA-based midfield duo of Llyod Sam and Kwadwo Poku, Germany-based defender Phil Ofosu-Ayeh and Finland-based former Kotoko defender Gideon Baah.

Sassuolo midfielder Alfred Duncan gets another chance to impress in the Black Stars after the Italy-based enforcer had a previous stint with the national team.
