Ghana opened camp in Accra on Thursday ahead of two crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Mali and the Central African Republic (CAR), next month.
Coach Otto Addo has invited 27 players to start preparations for the two games coming up next month away in Bamako against the Malians and on home soil in Kumasi when the CAR visits the Baba Yara Stadium.
The Black Stars will train at the University of Ghana Stadium, Legon for six days before heading to Mali on Tuesday, June 4 to round off preparations for the Group I fixture against the Malians on Thursday, June 6 in Bamako.
The team will return to Ghana (Kumasi), right after the game to prepare for the home game against the CAR on June 10 as Ghana seeks to make it to a second successive Mundial after playing at the last edition in Qatar in 2022.
Ghana have won one and lost the other in the two matches they have played in these qualifiers, and Otto Addo who was reappointed as Black Stars coach earlier this year, has been tasked to turn things around and qualify the team to the next football World Cup to be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Group I of the African qualifiers, houses Ghana, Mali, the CAR and the Comoros Islands with only one nation guaranteed qualification to the Mundial at the end of these qualifiers.
Ghana have played at four FIFA World Cups in 2006 in Germany, South Africa 2010, the 2014 edition in Brazil and the last Mundial in Qatar.
