Thomas Partey’s appointment as captain for the Black Stars in the crucial AFCON qualifiers against Sudan highlights his growing influence both at the club and international levels.
His strong performances for Arsenal, especially in high-stakes matches like the recent UEFA Champions League clash against PSG, have certainly bolstered confidence in his leadership abilities.
With regular captain Andre Ayew absent, Partey’s experience and form will be vital as Ghana looks to climb from third place in their group.
The upcoming matches on October 11 in Accra and October 14 in Libya are critical, and the pressure is on to secure maximum points.
Ghanaians will be hoping that Partey can translate his club success onto the international stage and inspire his teammates in these must-win games.
The nation’s AFCON qualification hopes rest heavily on this double-header, and Partey’s leadership could be a decisive factor.
