Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association, Henry Asante Twum, has revealed the football governing body’s continued effort to transform the Black Stars into one of the best teams in Africa.
The team, which had gone six matches without a win, secured back-to-back victories against Chad and Madagascar in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in March.
Ghana have now moved up one place in the latest FIFA rankings, their first improvement since July 2024.
"We want to try as much as possible to continue our rebuilding process, to continue the effort in making the team one of the best on the continent,” Henry told the GhanaFA media.
"It will not come easy, it will come with a lot of friendlies, a lot of engagements, a lot of competitive matches and what have you.
The senior national team will participate in a four-nation tournament in May, involving Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, and Nigeria.
The friendly competition will be held in London with Ghana set to face Nigeria in their first match on May 28.
"Luckily, we received this proposal [Unity Cup] from Afro Sports [UK based Match agency] and then we expressed interest in it.
"We are not overly concerned about results. We are concerned about our team building agenda.”
