Richard Ofori, Jojo Wollacott, and Baba Iddrisu are expected to miss out due to injuries.

Meanwhile, Asante Kotoko goalkeeper, Ibrahim Danlad has been handed a late call-up.

Ghana, who have been housed in Group H and are making their fourth appearance will open camp in Abu Dhabi and will take on Switzerland on November 17 before flying to Doha for the tournament on November 19.

Ghana will open their campaign against Portugal on November 24 at Stadium 974 in Doha.

Four days later, the Black Stars return to action with a clash with South Korea at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan.

Ghana will wrap up their group stage adventure with their much-anticipated encounter with Uruguay at Al Janoub Stadium in Al Wakrah.
