CAF WCLQ: We are in the toughest group – Police Ladies coach Yusif Basigi

Police Ladies head coach Yusif Basigi has described their CAF Women's Champions League Qualification group as the toughest.

The Ghanaian champions have been drawn in Group B alongside Nigerian heavyweights Bayelsa Queens, Togo’s Association Sportive de la Kozah and Benin’s Sam Nelly.

The Polas must fight their way out to secure a place in the Champions League proper later this year.

With less than a week to the start of the sub-regional campaign, Police Ladies have turned to Baisgi, one of Ghana’s most decorated coaches in women’s football, to plot their route to continental glory.

“Bayelsa are a big team, but I think it’s a good draw. Our group is the toughest, so we have to raise our game,” Basigi told Graphic Sports.

“We won’t leave anything to chance — the target is qualification,” he added.

The WAFU Zone B CAF Women’s Champions League WAFU Zone B qualifiers, which are scheduled to be hosted in Yamoussoukro, Côte d’Ivoire, will kick off from August 23 to September 4.
