Ghana U-23 coach Ibrahim Tanko eyes 2024 Olympics qualification

Black Meteors coach Ibrahim Tanko has set sights on qualifying the team to the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris after many years of absence.

The 45-year-old was in charge of the team which finished fourth at the 2019 tournament won by hosts Egypt, which ensured Ghana missed out on the 2020 Olympic Games.

Ghana will face Mozambique in a double header later this month with the winner moving on to play the winner of the tie between Algeria and DR Congo.

“We didn’t get the chance to play at the Olympics in Tokyo but we have another chance and so we are doing everything possible so that we qualify for the Africa Under-23 Championship and then the Olympic Games,” coach Tanko told ghanafa.org.

“We have almost three weeks and we have been in camp for the past two weeks and with the league on hold, we have all the players for training and are doing everything possible to qualify.”
