The Black Stars of Ghana have climbed one spot in the latest FIFA World Rankings, moving from 77th to 76th globally. Despite the slight global improvement, Ghana remains 14th in Africa.
The ranking boost follows dominant victories over Chad and Madagascar, reinforcing the team’s resurgence on the international stage. The wins have also given fans hope for a stronger performance in upcoming international competitions.
The latest rankings reflect the progress of Coach Otto Addo’s squad, which has been working to regain its position among Africa’s football powerhouses. The Black Stars have faced challenges in recent years, including an early exit from the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), and failure to qualify for the 2025 edition but recent results indicate a positive turnaround.
Ghana’s next test will be the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, where they aim to secure a spot in the global tournament. Football analysts believe that continued consistency in performance will be key to further improvements in future rankings.
Fans and stakeholders are encouraged by the progress, with many calling for sustained efforts to strengthen the squad ahead of crucial international fixtures.
