Kit of the Day #30: Ghana — The Black Stars Brighten Up Group L

Ghana drawn into Group L with England, Croatia and Panama. The Black Stars have a young, bright squad and a kit that nails the heritage brief. Day 30 of Kit of the Day.

Group L just got way more interesting

Whatever group Ghana land in, they make it must-watch. Ghana in Group L alongside England, Croatia and Panama means England have a proper African heavyweight to deal with.

The design

White Puma home shirt with red, gold and green flag-colour details, plus the Black Star motif positioned proudly on the chest. The 2026 release is sharper and slimmer than recent Ghana kits and the colour balance is the cleanest it has been in a decade.

Who to watch

Mohammed Kudus is the headline name — Premier League quality, capable of carrying a team. Thomas Partey still anchoring the midfield, and Inaki Williams brings the experience and Spanish league polish on the wing. Real depth across the squad.

Why you should care

Ghana versus England is the kind of fixture that has cultural weight far beyond just the result. The Black Stars kit at any tournament is one of the most photographed and the 2026 version is a serious contender for African shirt of the cycle.
