I believe our current squad is a very balanced one - John Paintsil

Former Fulham defender John Paintsil has stated the current Black Stars have a mixture of youth and experience ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The Black Stars qualified for the World Cup in Qatar by eliminating the Super Eagles on an away goal rule in a two-leg tie.

Ghana maintained its determination to draw goalless in Kumasi before drawing 1-1 in Abuja four days later at the Moshood Abiola Stadium.

John Paintsil, who was a member of Ghana’s 2010 FIFA World Cup campaign in South Africa, says the outcome is a hint of the country’s strong prospects in Qatar later this year.

“I believe our current squad is a very balanced one, with youth and experience,” John Paintsil told BBC Sports Africa.

“The two matches they played against Nigeria gave all of us hope that they can go further. We trust that they will do it.”

The Black Stars of Ghana have been assigned to Group H, which includes Portugal, South Korea, and Uruguay.
