Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey’s return to the Black Stars has provided a major boost for his national team ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification matches in June.
Early next month, the Black Stars of Ghana will play two important matches against Mali and Central African Republic in the qualifiers for the next FIFA World Cup.
After one win and one defeat in the first two matches, Ghana is currently fourth in the Group I standings and in need of points to get back on track in the qualification process.
Fortunately, Thomas Partey, one of the big guns who have been missing in action for the Black Stars has made a return to the national team.
The midfielder boasts of seven goals in eight FIFA World Cup qualification matches.
His last was an away goal against Nigeria that qualified the Black Stars for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
His impressive record should inspire the Black Stars to believe that winning the next two games in the qualifiers is a possibility.
The team will hope Thomas Partey’s impressive record will be extended in the games against Mali and Central African Republic.
Ghana’s matches against Mali and the Central African Republic will be played on June 6 and June 10 respectively.
