Former Ghanaian goalkeeper Abukari Damba suggests that the current Black Stars players require specific elements to enhance their performance.

Concerns have arisen regarding the recent performances of the senior national team.

As part of the preparations for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, the Black Stars faced Mexico and the USA in a friendly game in October.

Ghana experienced a 2-0 defeat against the CONCACAF champions and suffered a 4-0 loss against the US men's national team.

In the World Cup qualifiers, the Black Stars secured a hard-fought 1-0 win against Madagascar but faced a 1-0 loss to Comoros in their second Group I game.

Damba, in an interview, acknowledged the players' quality but emphasized the need for specific elements for optimal functioning in the game.

"I do understand that the whole team is built around individual players," he stated to Citi Sports. "Even with the individual players, they need certain ingredients to be able to function optimally in the game."

The Black Stars will regroup for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) scheduled to be hosted in Ivory Coast next year.
