*A bit of context on the 2026 pick:*
Brandon Thomas-Asante picked up the No. 10 after Coventry City helped him get promoted to the Premier League in 2025/26. FIFA’s official squad list confirmed it. He’s the first new No. 10 at a World Cup since Ayew took over from Appiah in 2014. ac34
The No. 10 shirt carries weight for Ghana - Appiah wore it in our first two World Cups, and Ayew wore it in the next two. Now it’s Thomas-Asante’s turn as Ghana chase their first knockout stage since 2010.
