Black Stars to hold final Accra training before travelling to Sekondi for Somalia game

The Black Stars will hold their final training session in Accra on Tuesday afternoon before travelling to Sekondi ahead of their crucial 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Somalia.

All invited players are expected to participate in the session at the Accra Sports Stadium as Acting Head Coach Kim Lars Björkegren and his technical team fine-tune their preparations for the upcoming double-header.

Ghana began camping in the capital on Sunday, November 8, with players arriving in batches to join the squad. The team has since been working on its fitness and tactical preparations ahead of the two Group C fixtures.

The Black Stars will welcome Somalia to the Essipong Sports Stadium in Sekondi-Takoradi on Thursday, November 12, before returning to the same venue for the reverse fixture on Monday, November 16. Both encounters are scheduled to kick off at 3:00pm GMT.

Ghana head into the two matches under pressure after suffering defeats in their opening qualifying games. The Black Stars lost 2-0 to Côte d’Ivoire in Bouake before falling 4-2 to The Gambia at the Accra Sports Stadium.

With their qualification hopes hanging in the balance, the team will be eager to collect all six points against Somalia to get their campaign back on track and remain in contention for a place at AFCON 2027.

The matches will also see Ghana return to the Essipong Sports Stadium, which recently secured temporary approval from the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to host the qualifiers.

The Black Stars are expected to travel to Sekondi immediately after Tuesday’s training session, where they will continue preparations at the venue ahead of Thursday’s opening encounter.
