Ghana may have suffered a big blow ahead of their upcoming 2022 World Cup qualifiers against Ethiopia and South Africa.
The Black Stars currently sit second in Group G, one point behind Bafana Bafana, whom they will face after their clash with Ethiopia.
However, Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac could be without one of his key performers after Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey picked up a groin injury.
Partey missed the Gunners' win over Watford on Sunday afternoon, and it remains to be seen if he will be available for his national team's final two World Cup qualifiers.
The 28-year-old did not feature in the first two qualifiers, but returned for the back-to-back games against Zimbabwe and scored in both matches.
Ghanasoccernet, meanwhile, has reported that Bordeaux defender Gideon Mensah will miss both qualifiers after picking up an ankle injury in the defeat to Paris Saint-Germain over the weekend.
The Black Stars travel to Ethiopia on Thursday afternoon before they welcome Bafana in their final Group G qualifier four days later.
