The CAF Player of the year winner Denis Onyango has been declared fit for Cranes historic return to continental football showpiece. The first choice shot stopper got injured in the Cranes’ preparatory game against the Carthage Eagles of Tunisia a week ago and only returned to training on Monday afternoon.
Coach Micho in the pre-match press conference revealed that the Sundowns goalkeeper is fit to start the game against the Black Stars.
“Onyango was taken out of the game we played with Tunisia a week ago because he was injured but he is fit to start the game tomorrow,” Micho told the press.
The CAF Champions League winner has enjoyed the better share of playing against the Black Stars conceding only a goal from the Ghanaians in their previous three meetings.
