Only Committed Players Will Be Considered for Ghana’s 2026 World Cup Squad – Kurt Okraku

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Kurt Okraku, has stated that only players who show full commitment and dedication to the national team will be considered for selection ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

In a recent statement, Okraku emphasized that the GFA is focused on assembling a squad of players who are loyal, professional, and willing to represent Ghana with pride. He noted that players who have previously declined call-ups or demonstrated a lack of commitment will not be eligible for future selections.

This announcement comes amid ongoing discussions regarding player eligibility, particularly concerning Eddie Nketiah and Callum Hudson-Odoi, who have been part of debates about switching allegiances or representing Ghana at the senior international level.

Okraku’s position underscores the GFA’s dedication to building a national team grounded in discipline, unity, and accountability, aiming to create a squad capable of achieving success on the global stage.

As the 2026 World Cup approaches, the GFA will continue to evaluate players based on their commitment, ensuring that only those who demonstrate loyalty and professionalism are selected to represent the country.
