“We have the character and what it takes to win the Africa Cup of Nations [AFCON],” Ghana Football Association (GFA) general secretary Prosper Harrison Addo said on Modern Ghana.
“Regardless of what has happened in the past, we are four times champions and we will prepare adequately ahead of the two qualifying games and make sure we can win the AFCON next year.
“In the second window, we will play some friendlies in other to position ourselves well ahead of the AFCON. We will have discussions with the technical team to ensure the team will be in good shape before the start of the tournament."
