“If you look at the squad, we have almost six or seven players from Zito\u2019s squad. We hope that they will show us something so that they can stay.”<\/p>\n

“As you know, it\u2019s a national team. It doesn\u2019t matter if you played for the under the \u201920s or not. We want to assemble the best ones and in two weeks, we will have a good team.<\/p>\n

Black Meteors will depart to Mozambique for the first leg of the U-23 AFCON second-round qualifier scheduled for October 20.<\/p>\n

The rematch will be held in Ghana on October 27, 2022.<\/p>\n
