Ghana's Black Stars head coach Carlos Queiroz has emphasized that the team must first focus on qualifying for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) before discussing the possibility of winning the continental title. Queiroz, a four-time African champion, highlighted that Ghana has not lifted the AFCON trophy since 1982 and has fallen short in three finals, losing in 1992, 2010, and 2015.
Recent team performances have been concerning, with consecutive group-stage exits and a failure to qualify for the 2025 tournament in Morocco. As the Black Stars prepare for the 2027 qualifiers, Queiroz urged players and supporters to temper their expectations and focus on rebuilding the team's competitiveness, acknowledging their recent history but emphasizing the need to earn their destiny through hard work, growth, and competition.
