The Black Stars’ new head coach, Chris Hughton, has been named by the Ghana Football Association (GFA). After Otto Addo’s departure in December, the former Premier League manager is now in charge.
The GFA expressed its pleasure at the appointment in a statement posted on its website, noting that it was consistent with their goal of continuing to assemble a potent World Cup roster.
Following thorough discussion between the two parties, “The Ghana Football Association has the pleasure to appoint Chris Hughton as Head Coach of the Black Stars,” stated the statement. “Mr. Hughton has served as the Black Stars’ technical advisor for the last 12 months.”

Two former Otto Addo assistants, George Boateng and Mas-Ud Didi Dramani, will work alongside Hughton as assistant coaches for the Black Stars. The three coaches served on the Qatar 2022 World Cup technical squad.

Hughton has the education and expertise necessary to guide the Black Stars to victory. The length of the contract and the engagement terms will be disclosed in full when the time comes.
