Unity Cup 2025: Black Satellites duo Abdul Aziz Issah and Aaron Essel named in Ghana squad

These two promising youngsters have been rewarded for their impressive development and performances at youth level, marking a significant milestone in their careers and a step forward for Ghana’s football youth system.

Issah, a dynamic midfielder with remarkable vision and ball control, has been a standout performer for the Black Satellites.

His ability to dictate tempo, break up play, and contribute offensively makes him an exciting all-rounder in the middle of the park.

The Barcelona B player had a remarkable campaign with the Ghana team at the U-20 AFCON tournament. He was named man of the match against the Central African Republic.

Essel, a powerful and intelligent defender, brings calm authority to the backline.

His leadership at the U-20 level, coupled with his strength in duels and reading of the game, signals a natural transition into the senior setup.

As the Unity Cup offers an international platform against strong opposition, Aziz and Essel have a golden opportunity to test their abilities and gain invaluable experience.

Their inclusion not only strengthens the squad’s depth but also signals a new era where young homegrown talents are trusted to carry the nation’s footballing legacy forward.
