Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac departed Accra on Saturday to woo two more players before Angola 2010.

The Serbian is scheduled to have talks with Bayern Leverkusen’s Hans Sarpei and Portsmouth midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng.

Rajevac’s mission is aimed at helping the Black Stars fix their problematic left-back position, Ghanasoccernet.com reported.

Sarpei last featured for the national team at the 2008 Cup of Nations on home soil but later sustained an injury and was out of the game for a while.

The 33-year-old was a 72nd minute substitute in Leverkusen's 1-1 draw at Bayern Munich on Sunday.

The Black Stars’ coach, according to the report, will be watching him live at the BayArena in Leverkusen's Bundesliga tie against Stuttgart.

Rajevac will also use his trip to spy on three players the Black Stars could play against in Angola 2010. He is expected to be at the Stadion am Bruchweg to watch Mainz against Hamburg, with special focus on Burkinabe striker Aristide Bance, and HSV duo Jonathan Pitroipa of Burkina Faso and Ivorian right-back Guy Demel.

Thereafter the coach will set off to England to meet Portsmouth midfielder Boateng, whose nationality switch is yet to be ratified by FIFA after playing for Germany in a junior tournament.
