A 28-man team has been selected by Black Stars head coach Carlos Queiroz for both the international friendly against Wales in Cardiff and the World Cup training camp. Five goalkeepers, nine defenders, seven midfielders, and seven forwards make up the team.

Before the friendly match against Wales on Tuesday, June 2, 2026, the team trained at Cardiff’s Dragon Park after opening camp on Monday, May 25, 2026.

Baba Abdul Rahman, a defender from Greece, rejoins the squad for the first time since September 2023 after playing well for PAOK. In 35 games this season, the former Chelsea left defender has three goals and three assists in all competitions.

Ernest Nuamah, a winger for Olympique Lyon who hasn’t played in nearly a year, is also coming back. After recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament injury that kept him out of action for more than a year, he is now fully fit.

Stade Rennes defender Alidu Seidu, Saint-Étienne midfielder Augustine Boakye, and Rayo Vallecano’s Abdul Mumin, who returned following a protracted absence due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury, are among the other noteworthy returnees.

Paul Reverson, a promising player for Ajax Amsterdam, has also been added. After making an impression for Ajax’s youth team in the Netherlands, the 20-year-old has been brought up for additional evaluation with an eye toward the future.

Yesterday, Monday, May 25, 2026, the team has gathered in Cardiff to get ready for the forthcoming FIFA World Cup in Canada, Mexico, and the United States as well as the international friendly versus Wales.

Ghana’s first Group L match is against Panama in Toronto, followed by matches against England and Croatia in Boston and Philadelphia, respectively.
