According to him, the blend of new players and experience will help the side to make an impact in Qatar. Ghana will officially open camp on November 10 in Abu Dhabi. The Black Stars will subsequently play Switzerland in the final game on November 17 before flying to Qatar on November 19. The West African country has been housed in Group H alongside Portugal, South Korea, and Uruguay. The 22nd edition of the tournament will kick off from November 20 to December 18.
