Former England and Liverpool goalkeeper, David James has tipped Ghana to win the FIFA World Cup in the near future.

The Black Stars have played in the last three world cups and have been described as the Brazilians of African football.

The country’s best performance in the FIFA World Cup competition was in South Africa 2010 when the country beats all odds to reach the quarter finals but was painfully denied by Uruguay on penalties to play in the semi finals.

The Black Stars will be hoping to make it four straight appearances to the world cup but the former Manchester City goalkeeper believes Ghana will win the world cup in the near future.

Speaking on the AM Show on the Joy News Channel, David James said, “I believe an African country can win the world cup and Ghana is capable of doing that.

“I can see Ghana winning the world cup in the near future because playing in Germany 2006, South Africa 2010 but I am must say that Brazil 2014, I was sad to see Ghana out of the competition but I believe it is not lost, African country can win it but Ghana stands tall”. He added.
