The Ghana Football Association (GFA) is on the brink of a significant announcement in anticipation of the Black Stars' forthcoming friendly against Uganda on March 26, 2024.
According to a report from GHANAsoccernet.com, the GFA is poised to introduce a new head coach and technical team ahead of the crucial match later this month.
In the aftermath of the Black Stars' disappointing exit from the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, the GFA swiftly initiated the process of appointing a new head coach to steer the national team forward.
A dedicated committee was entrusted with the task of meticulously selecting the ideal candidate to lead the Black Stars into a new era of success.
Following extensive deliberations and assessments, the committee has concluded its findings and submitted its recommendations to the Executive Council of the Ghana Football Association. The Executive Council will now embark on further consultations to ensure that the most suitable decision is reached regarding the appointment of the new head coach.
Recent reports suggest that a shortlist of candidates has been compiled and forwarded to the Ministry of Youth and Sports for consideration.
Among the prospective candidates, former Ghana coach and Dortmund trainer Otto Addo has emerged as a leading contender for the prestigious role.
With over 600 coaches vying for the position, the overwhelming interest underscores the significance attached to coaching the Black Stars.
The Ghana FA remains steadfast in its commitment to selecting a coach who possesses the requisite experience, expertise, and vision to guide the national team to success on the international stage.
