Fifa�s manager for Development and Programmes for Africa Francesco Bruscoli says Ghana has no excuse not to win next year�s Africa Cup of Nations.
The Italian was in Ghana to conduct a Fifa seminar for General Secretaries and Technical Directors for national associations in Africa.
He insists the Black Stars stand the brightest chance of annexing the Nations Cup on account of their performance in last year�s World Cup in South Africa. �I will take the risk to say my favourite team for next year�s African Cup is Ghana,� Bruscoli told Ghanasoccernet.com.
�I was drawn to them with what they did in last year�s world cup and I believe they have what it takes to win the title. �Ghana has very good players and their organization is very good so I don�t see they reason why the can�t win it.�
Ghana has emerged as one of the overwhelming favourites following the surprise absence of giants, Egypt, Cameroon and Nigeria after they all failed to qualify.
The 2010 World Cup quarter finalists alongside Cote d�Ivoire and tournament hosts, Gabon and Equatorial Guinea will avoid each other at the group stage after they were seeded for Saturday�s draw.
