AFC Bournemouth star Antoine Semenyo has declared the Black Stars readiness for the upcoming 2026 World Cup qualifying game against Chad.
Having missed out on the 2025 AFCON, to be staged in Morocco later this year, the Black Stars has shifted their attention to the 2026 World Cup qualification.
The West African powerhouse will face Chad at the Stade Olympique Maréchal Idriss Déby Itno at 1 pm on Thursday, September 4 before hosting Mali in a crunch clash at the Accra Sports Stadium on September 8.
However, Semenyo, who has been in a blistering form since the commencement of the 2025/26 campaign has affirmed the side will be ready for the Chad game.
“We will be ready for the game because we’ve got a good team” he told the media.
Meanwhile, the Black Stars will depart Accra for N'Djamena on Tuesday ahead of the much-anticipated clash against Chad.
Ghana opened camp on Monday, with twelve players participating in the first training session, held at the Accra Sports Stadium. Meanwhile, the rest of the squad are expected to join the team for Tuesday's trip.
As mandated by the world’s football governing body (FIFA) and CAF, the Stars will train at the match venue (N'Djamena) on Wednesday before the clash on Thursday afternoon.
Currently, the West African powerhouse sit top of Group I, accumulating 15 points after six matches, followed by Comoros (12 points), Madagascar (10), Mali (9), Central Africa Republic (5), with Chad yet to secure a point.
The Black Stars will wrap up their qualifiers against Central African Republic and Comoros in October.
