Ghana’s Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, has expressed confidence in the Black Stars’ preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, saying the team is eyeing a deep run in the competition.
“We are not going there to just go and participate, our intention is to stay there till the last day, reason why we have augmented the technical team,” Adams told Citi Sports, highlighting the government’s commitment to strengthening the team.
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has added five new faces to the technical team, including French coach Alain Ravera as assistant coach, and performance coach Dwayne Peasah Paa Kwesi.
These appointments aim to enhance Ghana’s competitiveness in the tournament, co-hosted by the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
Ghana has been drawn in Group L alongside Panama, England, and Croatia, and will look to surpass their best World Cup finish, reaching the quarter-finals in 2010.
