The Black Stars of Ghana held their second training session at the Accra Sports Stadium on Tuesday, June 13, just days away from the Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Madagascar,

The team welcomed back vice-captain Thomas Partey to the squad after he was absent on the opening day of camp.

The Arsenal midfielder was one of 24 players to complete the session at the Accra Sports Stadium with Gideon Mensah the only absentee,

The AJ Auxerre left-back has been excused from the team as he failed to recover in time from a knee injury he sustained while playing for the Ligue 1 side in France prior to the end of the season.

The team is expected to train behind closed doors on Wednesday while they will leave Accra on Thursday for Madagascar with the game slated for Sunday, June 18.
