Medeama SC striker Emmanuel Annor, a native of Asawinso ‘B’ in the Sefwi Wiawso Municipality of the Western North Region, has earned a call-up to the senior national team, the Black Stars, ahead of Ghana’s 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying double-header against Somalia.
Head coach Kim Lars Björkegren has named a 26-man squad for the two encounters, featuring a blend of locally based players and Ghanaian footballers plying their trade abroad.
Annor’s inclusion marks a proud moment for Asawinso ‘B’ and the wider Sefwi community, as the Medeama forward earns an opportunity to represent Ghana at the senior international level.
The Black Stars opened camp in Accra on Sunday, November 8, 2026, to begin preparations for the two matches.
Ghana will host Somalia in the first encounter at the Sekondi Sports Stadium on Thursday, November 12, before the two sides meet again on Monday, November 16, 2026.
Annor will be hoping to make the most of the opportunity as he seeks to impress the technical team and earn playing time in the national colours.
However, Annor featured for Ghana’s Black Galaxies in their 1–0 defeat to South Africa’s Bafana Bafana in an international friendly played on December 16, 2025.
