Tuesday, 1 June 2010
ACCRA, May 31 (AFP): Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac on Sunday unveiled his 23-man World Cup squad with all his key players included with one notable exception, Michael Essien.
The Chelsea midfielder misses the trip to South Africa after failing to recover from the knee injury that forced him to limp out of Ghana's team at the Africa Cup of Nations in January.
He was ruled out of contention on Friday.
Portsmouth midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng, who has a Ghanaian father and a German mother, made the list after receiving approval from FIFA despite having figured for Germany at youth level.
