Togo have lost key midfielder Serge Gakpe for Wednesday’s 2015 Africa Cup of Nations Group E qualifier against Ghana in Lome.

The Nantes player suffered a leg injury during training on Monday after crashing into a metal pipe at the Stade de Kegue.

Head coach Tchanile Tchakala must strategize without one of his renowned players against the Black Stars who are bent on reviving their campaign.

But the former international has been consoled by the availability of striker Emmanuel Adebayor who returned to training yesterday.

The Tottenham Hotspur star missed their opening 2-1 defeat to Guinea in Casablanca last Friday.

Togo could not finalize the paperwork for the nationality switch for France-born Matthieu Dossevi who plays for Greek Super League side Olympiacos.
