Under-pressure Black Stars coach Otto Addo has embarked on a solidarity tour to support his players, visiting injured defender Alidu Seidu and winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, as well as checking in on fit-again forward Jordan Ayew.

Addo began his tour in France, where he visited Seidu before the defender underwent successful knee surgery after being ruled out for the rest of the season.

The Stade Rennes right-back sustained a cruciate ligament injury during a Ligue 1 match against LOSC last month.

Seidu, who had been in fine form for Rennes and was named the club's Player of the Month in September, will now focus on rehabilitation but is set to miss Ghana's 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Chad and Madagascar in March.
