Black Satellites to Begin Preparations for 2025 U-20 AFCON with 35 Premier League Players
Black Satellites head coach Desmond Ofei has extended invitations to 35 players from Ghana Premier League clubs as the team commences preparations for the 2025 CAF U-20 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
The selected players will report to camp from January 3 to January 9, 2025, marking the first phase of a rigorous talent assessment process aimed at building a formidable squad for the continental tournament.
This initial phase of camping will focus on evaluating players from the Premier League, offering the technical team a closer look at the top-tier talents available locally.
Following the Premier League assessment, another batch of players from Division One clubs will join the camp from January 10 to January 15. This systematic approach is designed to ensure that the technical team evaluates talent from all tiers of Ghanaian football.
With the CAF U-20 AFCON set to take place in Cote d’Ivoire from April 26 to May 18, 2025, the Black Satellites are leaving no stone unturned in their preparations. The tournament also serves as a qualifier for the FIFA U-20 World Cup, adding an extra layer of significance to Ghana’s campaign.
