Black Satellites coach Desmond Ofei has stated that his current desire is to secure qualification for the 2025 U20 World Cup.
The Ghana U20 side won gold at the just ended African Games. The team stunned Uganda 1-0 in the final at the Accra Sports Stadium, to mark an historic feat for Ghana, winning their first men's football medal at the African Games in over a decade.
Ofei explained the importance of taking each competition one at a time with their current focus on the upcoming WAFU tournament as a great stepping stone towards their ultimate aim of snatching qualification to the 2025 World Cup.
“Personally, it’s day by day, step by step, and competition by competition. For us, the most important competition now is the WAFU because we really want to participate in the next World Cup which takes place in 2025," Ofei said in an interview with 3 Sports.
"We still have a lot of work to do. Now we have a good base and we can build on it. The next objective is the WAFU in October. We will prepare well and scout extensively to get all the hidden gems to come and help the team progress to the World Cup,” Ofei added.
