Black Princesses coach, Yusif Basigi, has disclosed that they are aiming to break the group phase qualification jinx ahead of the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Colombia.

Ghana is set to make its seventh consecutive appearance at the biennial competition.

As part of the team's preparations, 35 players are currently in Cape Coast preparing for the upcoming global showpiece.

The team will be engaged in a series of friendly matches to prepare for the tournament before departing for the South American country.

Speaking to the Ghana FA media, Basigi expressed confidence in his team and said they are targeting qualifying from their group.

"We have been in Cape Coast for a few days now, and everyone is putting in maximum effort. The technical team has designed a series of training programs to keep the players in good shape," he said.

"The players are determined to represent the nation on the biggest stage. With a few days left before the start of the World Cup, we are leaving no stone unturned. Our goal is to make an impact on the world stage and make it out of the group stage."

Basigi also praised the Ghana Football Association and government for their support.

"The Football Association and the government have been very supportive in our preparations, and we know they will continue to support us. We won't let them down."

The Black Princesses will play against Austria in their opening match on September 2 and will face Japan and New Zealand in the other Group E matches.
