Black Queens head coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren is optimistic about Ghana’s chances at the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).
“I am looking forward to the tournament. When I came in, we were No.6 in Africa, but now we are No.3, which makes us top-seeded,” he said.
Bjorkegren’s team has been drawn in Group D alongside Cameroon, Mali, and Cape Verde.
“We will face another three really good teams, but as I said, I am looking forward to the tournament. We will push to do an even better tournament this time,” he added.
Ghana aim to build on their bronze medal finish in the previous edition.
The top two teams from each group will advance to the quarterfinals, with semifinalists qualifying for the 2027 Women’s World Cup in Brazil.
