Veteran Ghanaian trainer Abdul Karim Zito insists the Black Stars can succeed at the 2026 World Cup with the right attitude.
Ghana are set to make their fifth World Cup appearance after securing qualification for the expanded tournament co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
The West African giants have been drawn in Group L alongside England, 2018 World Cup finalists Croatia, and Panama. Ghana will begin their campaign against Panama before facing England and Croatia.
In an interview with Koforidua-based Swiit FM, the former Asante Kotoko gaffer affirmed the Black Stars can thrive at the global showpiece with the right attitude.
“It won’t be easy for the Black Stars considering the quality of our opponents, but I believe that with the right attitude, we can succeed. In the just-ended season, a second-division club shocked everyone by eliminating Hearts of Oak from the FA Cup â something nobody expected. This is football; anything can happen. I’m confident the team can progress beyond the group stage.” He said.
The Black Stars have already arrived in the United States as preparations intensify for the tournament, which kicks off on June 11, 2026.
Ghana have previously featured at the World Cup in 2006, 2010, 2014, and 2022, with their best performance coming in 2010 when they reached the quarterfinals.
