Ghana have made an upward movement in the latest FIFA ranking, making it their first since July 2024 when they moved from 64th to 60th.
The Black Stars now occupy the 76th position in the global ranking, having been in the 77th position since November 2024.
The positive movement follows Ghana's winning start to the 2025 calendar during the last international break.
Ghana defeated Chad and Madagascar in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers, recording their first wins since the victory over the Central African Republic in June.
The wins see Ghana move above Israel, who have dropped two places in the ranking.
While the signs are positive for Ghana in the global ranking, they remain unchanged in the continental ranking.
Ghana sit 14th as far as the African continent is concerned.
Otto Addo will hope he can improve the team's ranking further when they return to action later in the year.
