Daniel Amartey
Amafrtey had one of his best seasons at the King Power stadium in the just ended campaign after struggles with injuries in the previous seasons. He joined Leicester City in 2016, and was a member of the English Premier League winning side.
He is out of contract at the end of the month, and reports suggests he might be joining Rangers. A decision will be made soon.
This season, he made 28 Premier League appearances.
Eddie Nketiah
The English-born Ghanaian had a fine finish to the campaign, scoring five goals in the last eight games of the campaign. He was on target in the final day thrashing of Everton.
However, his future at Arsenal seems to be in limbo due to a lack of playing time. The forward, who is ready to make an international switch and play for Ghana could be making a club change as soon as possible.
