The Black Stars concluded their final training session in Accra on Tuesday as they prepare for their vital Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Somalia. All 26 invited players are expected to be present at the Accra Sports Stadium, where the team will fine-tune their preparations under the guidance of acting head coach Kim Lars Björkegren and his coaching staff.
Training commenced on Sunday, November 8, with players arriving in groups and focusing on improving their fitness and tactical organization. Ghana will host Somalia in the first leg of their double-header on Thursday, November 12, at the Essipong Sports Stadium in Sekondi-Takoradi, followed by a return match at the same venue on Monday, November 16, both games starting at 15:00 GMT.
The Black Stars find themselves under pressure after suffering two consecutive defeats in their opening qualifiers. They lost 2-0 to Côte d’Ivoire and 4-2 to The Gambia, leaving them at the bottom of Group C without a point. This makes the upcoming matches against Somalia crucial for Ghana's aspirations to advance to the 2027 tournament.
After Tuesday's training, the team is set to depart immediately for Sekondi to continue preparations at the match venue.
