'I don’t expect much from the Black Stars at the World Cup’ - Kwadwo Asamoah

Former Ghanaian midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah has said that he does not have high expectations for the Black Stars at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

According to him, the Black Stars’ pedigree in world football always places them among the favorites in every competition they participate in.

However, with the team’s current performances, he does not have high expectations but hopes they give their best to showcase their talent.

“Honestly, I am not expecting much, but I’m hoping for the best because Ghana has always been one of the favorites when it comes to the World Cup among African teams. But it won’t be easy,” he told 3Sports during an interview.

The Black Stars are heading into the tournament with new coach Carlos Queiroz, who took over from Otto Addo following poor performances in friendly games ahead of the competition.

The team has faced criticisms for its performances but will be led by a new technical team tasked with making the necessary adjustments to ensure success.

Asamoah was one of the finest midfielders for the national team during his playing days, featuring in the Africa Cup of Nations and other international tournaments.
