Ghana U17 coach Paa Kwasi Fabin is happy with his side's planned trip to Denmark for a training tour ahead of their participation at this year's FIFA U17 World Cup in India.

The Black Starlets are expected to spend a month in Denmark to fine tune preparations ahead of the tournament.

Coach Fabin is happy with this opportunity and hopes to use it to prepare the team.

“We have been playing under the Africa weather for over a long time and it is prudent we go out there and engage the Europeans and the South American countries to have a feel of what they will be bringing to the table during the tournament.”

“So far we have pitched our strength with both Ghanaian and some African countries. Its time we do so against some top European countries and Clubs as well to further assess our chances at the tournament”, coach Paa Kwesi adde.

According to him, the weather factor was also important for his team as they hope to get to India without any issues about the weather conditions there.

“You know that the weather is totally different there as well as the time zones, so we need to get all these things intact before the tournament starts. That is why we believe that the month long European tour will help us to achieve that.”
