The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has confirmed that Otto Addo will remain head coach of the Black Stars despite overseeing one of Ghana’s worst qualification campaigns in history.

Addo is expected to present a comprehensive technical report to the GFA Executive Council on November 27, outlining the challenges and future plans for the team.

This decision follows a crucial meeting of the GFA Executive Council, chaired by President Kurt Okraku, to address the fallout from Ghana’s disastrous 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.

The Black Stars finished last in Group F without a single victory in six matches, marking the first time in 20 years the team failed to qualify for the tournament.

Angola and Sudan secured the two qualification spots, with Sudan’s campaign led by former Black Stars coach James Kwasi Appiah.

Otto Addo, who previously worked as a scout for Borussia Dortmund, has faced intense criticism from fans and analysts alike, many questioning his tactical approach and team selection.

The discontent is fueled by the Black Stars’ inability to secure even a single win, a historic low point for the team.

Meanwhile, the Black Stars Management Committee has been dissolved following a meeting of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Executive Council on Wednesday, November 20, Channel One News has confirmed.

In a press statement issued after the meeting, the GFA Executive Council announced the dissolution of the Black Stars Management Committee and expressed gratitude to its members.

“Immediate dissolution of the Management Committee of the senior national football team, the Black Stars. In doing so, we sincerely thank the members of the Committee for their service to Ghana Football over the years” the statement read.

The committee has faced intense criticism over its perceived inefficiency and high remuneration. Reports revealed that each member received $100,000 following Ghana’s participation in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, further fueling public outrage.
