The Ghana Football Association has successfully concluded interviews with selected candidates for the vacant Black Stars head coach position, GHANAsoccernet.com understands.

The interviews, which took place on Monday, form a crucial part of the Football Association’s efforts to identify a suitable replacement for Otto Addo following his recent dismissal.

The decision to part ways with Addo came about a week ago after a series of disappointing results in international friendlies, prompting the GFA to act swiftly.

Sources indicate that the interview process involved both local and foreign coaches, with the FA keen on assessing not only technical expertise but also leadership qualities, vision, and the ability to handle the pressures associated with managing the Black Stars.

The shortlisted candidates are believed to include several high-profile names, as the GFA aims to secure a coach capable of restoring confidence in the national team ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Each candidate reportedly presented their tactical philosophy, plans for squad rebuilding, and strategies for achieving short-term success while laying the foundation for long-term growth.

The FA is particularly focused on appointing a coach who can quickly impose structure and consistency within the team.

With time not on their side, the GFA is expected to move into the next phase of the selection process, which will involve internal deliberations and consultations with key stakeholders.

The conclusion of the interviews marks a significant step forward, as the Association edges closer to naming a new head coach.

An official announcement is expected soon as the Black Stars look to turn a new chapter.
