The Vice President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Fred Pappoe made the announcement in an interview with Kessben FM in Kumasi on Monday.

He said Ghana stand a good chance of making a huge impact in the World Cup, which takes place on the African continent for the first time.

On bonuses for players, Mr. Pappoe said the FA would meet with the leadership of the Black Stars players to discuss it before the tournament starts. He indicated that the inclusion of Portsmouth star Kevin Prince Boateng would impact positively on the team's showing in the toughest football tournament in the world which starts next month in South Africa.
