Ghana Black Stars head coach Carlos Queiroz plans to release his squad selection for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. The Portuguese manager recently secured a contract extension to continue his tenure with the senior national team following a Round of 32 finish at the FIFA World Cup. The Ghana Football Association (GFA) confirmed that the technical staff has been actively working since the end of the international tournament.
GFA Communication Director Henry Asante Twum revealed that Queiroz will announce the squad list before his arrival, but he has been working continuously since the World Cup. Once Queiroz returns to Ghana, he will fine-tune the remaining preparations for the AFCON qualifiers. The upcoming qualification series is particularly significant for Ghana as they have not participated in the continental showpiece since 2004.
The group stage will see Ghana face Côte d'Ivoire on September 24, followed by The Gambia on September 27, and Somalia on the final qualifying match.
