Ivory Coast head coach Hervé Renard has unveiled his 25-man squad for the upcoming 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Ghana, set to take place in Bouake on September 24th.

Ivory Coast will be hosting Ghana in their first fixture, attempting to capitalize on home advantage after failing to qualify for the 2025 tournament.
The squad also features European-based talent like Kessie, with attacking options including Yoane Wissa’s fellow forwards Evann Guessand, Mohamed Koné, and Ryan Fofana. Goalkeeper Yahia Fofana, Alban Lafont, and Mohamed Koné have all been selected, with the defensive lineup featuring established internationals Odilon Kossounou, Emmanuel Agbadou, Ousmane Diomande, and Evann Ndicka.
Renard aims to strike a balance between experience and emerging talent as Ivory Coast looks to secure their place in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.
