"We will try to beat Ghana"- Germany forward Serge Gnabry ahead of Black Stars friendly

Bayern Munich forward Serge Gnabry remains confident ahead of Germany's international friendly against the Black Stars of Ghana. 

The European heavyweights will engage the five-time African champions in a pre-World Cup encounter in Stuttgart as part of preparations ahead of the tournament in June and July.

Before facing Ghana on Monday, Germany will also engage European rivals Switzerland on Friday.

Having struggled at major tournaments since winning the World Cup in 2014, Gnabry disclosed the current team is focused on succeeding, with the game against Ghana a good test for the former world champions.

"The focus is now on the national team, regardless of what happens at the club. We'll try to win the games, and then everyone will return to their club. Training has been good and intense. We're looking forward to the matches," said the ex-Arsenal player.

The Germans have been drawn in Group E of the World Cup against Ghana's West African neighbours Ivory Coast, South Americans Ecuador and debutants Curacao.

Meanwhile, before Monday's encounter, Ghana's Black Stars will face Austria on Friday in Vienna.

Ghana have been drawn in Group L alongside England, Panama and Croatia.
