Official: Otto Addo Returns As Head Coach Of The Black Stars

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has reappointed Otto Addo as the new Black Stars coach after two months of search for the vacant position.

Otto Addo, 48, led the Black Stars to the World Cup in Qatar as caretaker manager and resigned immediately after Ghana's exit.

Ghana FA President Kurt Okraku confirmed his appointment via a statement: “Otto was exceptional in the interview process and was rated highly by the search committee, hence the decision.

“There were some brilliant individuals among the coaches who applied for the job, so the committee took the pain to interview a chunk of them to pick their thoughts on their intentions to transform the team within a short period of time due to our peculiar situation”

“The Committee was overly satisfied with Otto’s performance for which reason he was recommended to the Executive Council for approval,” President Simeon-Okraku added.
