Ghana’s striking department has been one of the biggest headaches for coach Milovan Rajevac ahead of the start of the African Cup of Nations.
Although the coach has initiated attempts to get a better and prolific goal scorer in the national team, his efforts have proven futile.
However, it appears, most of the players have hit good form for their clubs this season than for the national team.
