Acquah was initially not part of Kwesi Appiah’s squad for the upcoming assignment, however, injuries in camp have forced the Black Stars coach to invite the former Parma man.
The 25-year-old was handed a late call-up on Monday as a replacement for the injured Isaac Sackey who pulled up while playing for his club in the Turkish topflight.
The Tornio midfielder demonstrated his delight with the call-up by posting a picture on his Twitter feed just minutes after touching down at the airport in Ghana.
