Ghanaian midfielder Elisha Owusu has expressed his disappointment at missing the Black Stars’ upcoming 2026 World Cup qualifiers due to injury but remains optimistic about the team’s success.

Owusu was initially included in Ghana’s squad for the crucial matches against Chad and Madagascar but was ruled out after sustaining an injury. Despite the setback, he maintains a positive outlook and is focused on his recovery.

“It’s never easy to miss out, but I believe everything happens for a reason, and my focus now is on recovery,” Owusu shared on social media.

He also rallied support for his teammates, urging fans to stand behind the Black Stars. “Your support means everything. Keep believing in the team, and let’s push forward together!”

Ghana will face Chad on March 21 at the Accra Sports Stadium before taking on Madagascar in Morocco on March 24. The Black Stars are currently joint top of Group I with nine points, alongside Comoros.
