stars in Europe - Uche not angry at Nigeria World Cup snub

The Villarreal striker was not picked by Keshi, despite scoring 12 goals in the Spanish top flight this season. Uche has not played for his country since they won the Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa last year. The 30-year-old insists, however, that he holds no grudges against Keshi. "Of course as a professional footballer you'd love to represent your country, but I have never had bad words towards the national coach," Uche is widely regarded as one of Nigeria's most reliable strikers at international level and is one of his nation's all-time top scorers, with 18 goals in 45 appearances, behind Rashidi Yekini, Segun Odegbami and Yakubu Aiyegbeni.

2015 AFRICA CUP QUALIFIERS - GROUP STAGE - 3RD MATCHES - GHANA - COACH KONADU NAMES SQUAD

AFRICA CUP 2015 QUALIFIERS GROUP E

Ghana caretaker coach Maxwell Konadu has handed Kwabena Adusei his first senior call-up in a 23-man squad to face Guinea this month.

The Black stars play Guinea twice in Group E of the 2015 African Cup of Nations qualifiers - on 11 October in Casablanca and in Tamale on the 15th.

Konadu will take charge of the team until a successor to Kwesi Appiah, who left in September, is appointed.

Ghana are believed to be considering a shortlist of five men for the job.

Reports suggest the three-man committee tasked with appointing a new coach are considering ex-Chelsea boss Avram Grant, ex-Netherlands assistant coach Patrick Kluivert, ex-Republic of Ireland assistant coach Marco Tardelli, ex-Swiss assistant coach Michel Pont and ex-Valadollid coach Juan Ignacio Martinez.

Meanwhile, former Ghana assistant boss Konadu has immediately brought in a new face in Adusei.

The 27-year-old centre-back recently joined Mpumalanga Black Aces from Asante Kotoko and will be eager to impress in the Ghana set-up.
