Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has shared the excitement to return to his country and also to the Black Stars despite admitting it wasn't easy to leave Borussia Dortmund for this job.
The German-born of Ghanaian descent is starting his job as the full-time head coach of the Black Stars right away and has already announced his squad for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Mali and Central African Republic.
Speaking before his squad announcement at the GFA headquarters, the enterprising gaffer expressed elation and also praised the Ghana FA for their hard work to secure his service.
"I am happy and excited to be back but it was not easy. The FA had a lot of talks with Dortmund and I am back home,” coach Otto Addo said.
The team is expected to open camp on Thursday, May 30, in Accra to hold some few team get-together and training sessions before they depart to Bamako in days time.
The four-time African champions had what isn't an impressive start to the World Cup qualifiers having won against Madagascar but lost to Comoros in their second game and will hope to seek redemption this time around.
The Black Stars will play as guests to Mali in Bamako on June 6, before they host Central African Republic in Kumasi on June 10, 2024.
