Ghana’s interim coaches are preparing to name the Black Stars squad for two crucial 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Somalia. The matches, scheduled for early 2024, represent a key opportunity for the team to secure its first points in Group C. The squad selection comes as the team looks to improve its standing in the group and build momentum ahead of the tournament.

The two matches against Somalia will take place in Accra, Ghana, at the Accra Sports Stadium. The Ghanaian team has not yet secured a win in Group C, and the upcoming fixtures are seen as vital for their qualification prospects. Interim coach Kwame Nsiah has emphasized the importance of the games, stating that the team must focus on consistency and tactical discipline.

This is the first time Ghana has faced Somalia in a competitive qualifier since 2019. The previous encounter ended in a 1-1 draw, and the team is keen to avoid a repeat of that result. The squad selection process will involve a mix of experienced players and emerging talents, with a focus on squad depth and versatility. The final squad is expected to be announced in late December 2023.
