The Black Stars rounded off their final session in the capital on Tuesday, with head coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren putting his squad through a high-intensity workout at the Accra Sports Stadium before the team departs for Takoradi to continue preparations in the Western Region. Twenty-four players featured in the session, which centred on tactical shape, cohesion and match-specific drills as the technical team fine-tuned its game plan for a decisive week in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign, with only Alidu Seidu and Marvin Senaya missing, leaving Bjorkegren with a near-complete squad and fierce competition for starting places.
Ghana head into the double-header under real pressure, still searching for a first win after opening defeats to Cote d’Ivoire and The Gambia left them with no margin for error. Six points from the two meetings with Somalia, the first on Thursday, November 12 and the return fixture on Monday, November 16, 2026, would transform the complexion of the group and restore control of their qualification destiny, while anything less could leave their hopes of reaching next year’s tournament hanging by a thread
