Latifa Musah honours grandmother with Black Maidens World Cup jersey

Black Maidens defender Latifa Musah has honoured her grandmother with a special gesture, presenting her with her 2026 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup jersey as a token of appreciation.

The young defender shared the moment with her grandmother, recognising the important role she has played in her journey and expressing gratitude through the presentation of the memorable jersey.

The gesture comes after an impressive campaign with Ghana at the 2026 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Morocco, where the Black Maidens reached the quarter-final stage.

Musah was a key figure in head coach Joe Nana Adarkwa’s defensive setup, featuring in the backline as Ghana navigated a challenging tournament.

The team recorded a 3-3 draw against Brazil and a 2-0 victory over Canada in the group stage before eliminating Argentina on penalties in the Round of 16.

Their campaign eventually ended with a narrow 1-0 defeat to Japan in the quarter-finals.

Ghana's return to the competition after missing the previous two editions was a significant achievement, with the team finishing among the final eight nations.

For Musah, however, the presentation of her jersey to her grandmother offered a personal way to celebrate the experience and acknowledge someone special behind her journey.
