Annan confirmed that he will join the Black Stars for their pre-Nations Cup training camp in South Africa from 27 December.He is keen for Ghana�s success atthe tournament to be held in Angola early next month. �I am looking forward to the tournament. This is my second participation, so Iknow how nice it is,� Annan said. The Norway league has ended as the severe winter in the country means they are unable to playduring that time. As such they have a different calendar from the top league of Europe like England, Spain, Franceand Germany.
