Liberia coach Peter Butler has invited six new players to the squad ahead of this month’s friendly game against Turkey.
Butler called up 23 players for three friendlies in Antalya towards the end of the month for the international window.
Mohamed Cherif Diallo, who plays in Italy for Derthona, is the only foreign-based player handed his maiden call-up to play for the Lone Star.
The rest of the new players ply their trade in the country for top-flight sides and they include Junior Yeanay and Allenton Sembeh.
The other new players called up by the English tactician are Frank Allison, Emmanuel Reyah, and Prince Zawoh as they will also be chasing their first matches for the senior national team.
