The Black Stars will hold their final training session in Accra on Tuesday before departing for Sekondi to prepare for their crucial 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying matches against Somalia. Acting head coach Kim Lars Björkegren and his team are finalizing preparations for the two matches against the African nation.

The outcome of these matches against Somalia will be crucial for Ghana's chances of qualifying for the 2027 tournament. After Tuesday's training session, the team is expected to depart for Sekondi immediately to continue preparations at the match venue.
