Wales will host Ghana in a summer friendly at Cardiff City Stadium on Tuesday, 2 June, marking the first time the national team faces African opposition. The match against the Black Stars will serve as preparation for Wales' World Cup qualification play-off. Craig Bellamy's side aims to reach the tournament in North America.

Ghana, already qualified for the World Cup, will use the fixture to fine-tune their preparations before the global tournament. The Black Stars will compete in a challenging group featuring England, Croatia, and Panama. This friendly offers Wales a chance to test themselves against established World Cup opposition.

Wales' immediate focus remains their play-off against Bosnia and Herzegovina on Thursday, 26 March. The winner advances to face either Italy or Northern Ireland five days later, with a World Cup spot at stake. Success in these matches would make the Ghana friendly a celebration of qualification rather than a World Cup preparation game.
