Former captain of the Black Stars, Asamoah Gyan, has commented on the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier’s African draw.
At the draw on Thursday, July 13, when Ghana was assigned to Group 1, the illustrious forward was present.
The national teams of Mali, Chad, Comoros, Madagascar, and the Central African Republic will compete against the Black Stars in the group.
Asamoah Gyan commented on the draw and predicted that Ghana will not have an easy time in the qualifying rounds.
The former Sunderland FC man is however confident that no matter what the Black Stars will qualify for the next mundial.
“I think since 2006 when we qualified for the first time to 2022 we have been very consistent…..2026 is not going to be easy but we will try our best to make sure we qualify,” Asamoah Gyan shared.
The African qualifiers which will be played in a period of two years will commence in November this year.
The next FIFA World Cup will be hosted by the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
