Ghana Drawn with Côte d’Ivoire, Gambia and Somalia in AFCON 2027 Qualifying Group C

Ghana have been placed in Group C for the TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2027 qualifiers, setting up a competitive group-stage campaign against Côte d’Ivoire, Gambia and Somalia.

The draw presents a challenging pathway for the Black Stars, who will aim to secure qualification for Africa’s premier football tournament after mixed performances in recent international outings.

The group features reigning continental heavyweights Côte d’Ivoire, an improving Gambian side and a determined Somali team seeking to make their mark on the continental stage.

Ghana will particularly view the fixtures against Côte d’Ivoire as a high-stakes regional rivalry, with both sides traditionally boasting strong squads and passionate fan bases.

Matches against Gambia are also expected to be tightly contested, while encounters with Somalia present an opportunity for Ghana to pick up crucial points.

Football analysts say Group C offers a blend of rivalry, opportunity and unpredictability, with qualification likely to be decided by consistency across both home and away fixtures.

The qualifying campaign is expected to draw significant attention across the continent as teams begin preparations for a place at AFCON 2027.
