Brandon Thomas-Asante: Coventry forward off to World Cup with Ghana

Coventry City forward Brandon Thomas-Asante has been named in the Ghana squad for the World Cup which starts next week.

The 27-year-old has made five senior appearances for the Black Stars, scoring one goal which came against Nigeria in a 2-1 Unity Cup defeat at Brentford’s Gtech Stadium in May 2025.

Ghana are in Group L for the tournament alongside England, Croatia and Panama and open their campaign against the Panamanians on Thursday 18 June.

The tournament, which is being co-hosted by the USA, Canada and Mexico, is the fifth Ghana have qualified for. They reached the quarter-finals in South Africa in 2010.
