Ghana have arranged two friendly games against Mexico and the USA on the 28th June and 1st July, respectively in the United States of America.

However, the Black Stars have been compelled not to travel with Jordan Ayew, Andre Ayew and Daniel Amartey who play for English Premier League clubs, Swansea City, West Ham United and Leicester City, respectively, after the Ghana Football Association (GFA) received a warning letter from the clubs.

It is understood the clubs argued that the June 28 and the July 1 are dates outside the FIFA international calendar,hence they have got the right to prevent their players from playing in the game.

The two games form part of his team-building exercise by new Black Stars coach Kwesi Appiah after he took over from former Chelsea boss Avram Grant.
