Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Henry Asante Twum, has confirmed that Mohammed Kudus will be ready for Ghana's second group game against Egypt.
The Black Stars face the Pharaohs on Thursday in their second Group B game at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium in Abidjan.
Ghana will hope to record their first win of the tournament after suffering a 2-1 defeat against minnows, Cape Verde.
Kudus missed the game against the Blue Sharks as he continues to work his way to full fitness after returning to international duty with a 'slight knock.'
"Normally what he does is that after the first 15-20 minutes of training, he joins the physios for his personal training outside of the group," Asante Twum told Joy News.
"Luckily, today [Monday] he trained with the rest of the squad. He stayed in the group training for the whole period. The medical team is still assessing him.
"He is back in full team training and I am sure by Wednesday or Thursday he will be fine for that match."
The Black Stars need to avoid defeat against Egypt if they are to stand a chance of progressing to the next stage of the competition.
The game has been scheduled to kick off at 20:00GMT.
