GFA will appoint a competent coach, says spokesperson, Henry Asante Twum

Published on: 20 January 2023

The spokesperson for the Ghana Football Association [GFA], Henry Asante Twum has assured that his outfit will name a competent coach for the Black Stars.

The national team have been without a substantive head coach following the resignation of Otto Addo.

Addo, 47, left his role after the Black Stars' early exit from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where Ghana finished at the bottom of Group C with just three points.

The team suffered two defeats and recorded a win.

With the country's football governing body set to unveil a head trainer this month ahead of the doubleheader against Angola in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations [AFCON] qualifiers in March, Asante Twum has reiterated that a competent trainer will be named.

"We haven’t made any shortlist and at the right time we will," Henry said on State of the Affairs on GHOne TV.

"The job is open for all. Once you are a competent coach.

"There is pressure to appoint a competent coach. We are not looking at race or colour but just a competent coach," he added.

Meanwhile, Kwesi Appiah has confirmed that he has applied for the vacant job.
