His visit aimed to motivate the team as they prepare to pursue a fifth continental title.
Following the visit, the Black Satellites departed Accra on Saturday, April 19, 2025, to continue their final preparations in Cairo.
The team is expected to spend another week in Egypt before the competition kicks off on April 27.
