Ghana youth international Rabiu Mohammed is line to be drafted into the Black Stars to replace injured Michael Essien, GHANAsoccernet.com understands.
The 20-year-old could be called up for next month�s international friendly against Nigeria and the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Swaziland in September.
GHANAsoccernet.com sources say the 2009 Fifa Under-20 World Cup winner is regarded as a like-for-like replacement for the Chelsea ace who is out of action for six months.
Mohammed was rewarded with a three-year-deal this month by French Ligue 1 side Evian Thonon-Gaillard after impressing on loan last season.
He played for Ghana�s Olympic team in the first leg 3-1 defeat to Nigeria in the All Africa Games qualifier.
