The Nottingham Forest man has now been given permission to pull out of the squad by the team doctors.

Andre is expected to travel back to England for further assessment on the extent of the injury.

The 33-year-old was left on the bench by Chris Hughton in his first game as head coach of the national as GHANA went on to record a 1-0 win Angola.

The Black Stars are top of Group E following Thursday’s win over the Palencas Negras.
