Manager Otto Addo has released the whole 26-person roster for Ghana as the Black Stars get ready to go to Doha.
At a press conference on Monday in Accra, Addo unveiled his final team after trimming the original 55-man roster.
The ultimate football governing organisation, FIFA is set to receive the final list from all teams on November 14 and will make the announcement the following day.

For this year, the head coach chose familiar faces that could likely dominate the field and take the African team past the round of 16.
Along with captain Andre Ayew and Mohammed Kudus of Ajax, the squad roster features Thomas Teye Partey of Arsenal, who will captain the Black Stars team in Qatar.
Premier League stars Daniel Amartey (Leicester City), Mohammed Salisu (Southampton), and Jordan Ayew (Crystal Palace) are also called to represent their national team.
Joining them are Inaki Williams and Tariq Lamptey.
Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, the top U20 player in Africa, is also on the team list, representing the African giants by hoisting the Red, Gold, and Green flag.
However, absence of in-form winger Joseph Paintsil and versatile player Jeffrey Schlupp from the flight to the Middle East is notable, and might take a toll on the team.
Likewise, Felix Afena-Gyan, a former player for AS Roma, was unexpectedly dropped from the team despite playing a crucial role in the playoff match against Nigeria in March.
