Ghana were denied a place in the 2017 Africa Youth Championship by Senegal in a two legged tie.
The Black Satellites will have to wait for another two years to look forward to booking a place in the African Youth Championship, a tournament which is the gateway to the FIFA U-20 World Cup.

However, the new Ghana government in its first budget for 2017 has allocated funds for the Black Satellites for a competition they couldn't qualify.
"In 2017, the Ministry will facilitate the participation of the African U-20 and U-17 Championships in Zambia and Gabon, respectively," the document reads.
The 2017 African U-20 Championship kicked off on 26th February in Zambia.
