GFA hints at review of Black Stars technical team after Otto Addo's exit
Kurt Okraku, President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), declined to give a definitive position on the future of the Black Stars' expanded technical team following the departure of former head coach Otto Addo. Okraku indicated that discussions are ongoing and a final decision has not yet been made. When asked whether the technical staff would all retain their positions, he said, "I can't answer for this moment."
Ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the GFA strengthened the national team's backroom staff by adding five more members, bringing the total technical personnel to 19. Otto Addo's exit has raised fresh uncertainty about whether the enlarged technical setup will remain intact under the incoming head coach. Okraku said, "But what I know is that I am leading the charge, engaging all key stakeholders, just to make sure that we have a technical team that will take us to where we desire and where we want to go."
The GFA is expected to appoint a new leader in the coming weeks. The Black Stars are scheduled to regroup in May and June for international friendlies against Mexico and Wales. Ghana has been drawn in Group L at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where they will face Panama, England, and Croatia when the competition kicks off on June 11 across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
