The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has announced the appointment of Chris Hughton as Technical Advisor to the newly constituted technical team of the Black Stars team.
The Black Stars technical and management teams were dissolved following directives from the Sports Ministry, after the team’s abysmal performances at the just ended 2021 AFCON.
The Executive Council of the GFA after a meeting in Accra on Wednesday, February 9, 2022 formed a new technical team for the senior national team.
An official communique on the GFA’s website said;
“Former Newcastle United and Brighton and Hove Albion manager Chris Hughton has been appointed as Technical Advisor to the newly constituted Black Stars Technical team led by Otto Addo.
“Other members of the new Technical team include George Boateng and Mas-Ud Didi Dramani. The 63- year old will provide Technical advice to the three-man team for next month’s FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 play-off match against Nigeria,” part of a communique from the GFA has said.
Ghana play their West African bitter rivals Nigeria in a two-legged showdown scheduled to be played in March for a place to the Qater 2022 FIFA World Cup.
