Ghana are reportedly exploring a bold and unusual strategy ahead of the World Cup, which could see the national team include three domestic league players in their squad.
The idea is not only sporting but also financial, as FIFA is expected to pay around $11,000 per player per day during the tournament.
If Ghana only manages a short group-stage run, each selected player could still earn approximately $150,000, a figure that would directly benefit their local clubs.
This proposed structure means the money would flow back into the Ghana Premier League, potentially providing a major financial injection for clubs struggling with funding.
Officials believe the move could help strengthen domestic football development while also rewarding local talent with international exposure on the world’s biggest stage.
Although the plan has not yet been officially confirmed, it has already sparked discussions about how World Cup squad selection policies could influence African league growth going forward.
