Ghana's head coach Carlos Queiroz is set to attend the upcoming CAF Strategy Conference in Cape Verde, following his team's successful run to the knockout stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The three-day conference, from October 7 to 9 in Santa Maria, Sal Island, will bring together football coaches from Africa’s 10 World Cup representatives, alongside other national team coaches, experts, and senior officials.
Queiroz led Ghana to the Round of 32, where they were defeated 1-0 by Colombia. He has since been appointed on a permanent basis and will oversee the Black Stars' qualification efforts for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations. His first assignment involves the Black Stars' upcoming matches, starting with a match against Côte d’Ivoire on September 24 in Bouaké, followed by a home game against The Gambia on September 29 in Accra, and concluding with a friendly against Morocco in Tangier on October 4.
The CAF Strategy Conference will focus on two main areas: enhancing football development and sustainability across Africa, and evaluating the performances of the continent’s World Cup participants ahead of the 2030 tournament. Given that nine African nations advanced to the Round of 32 at the 2026 World Cup, this gathering presents Queiroz and his fellow coaches with an opportunity to analyze those performances and deliberate strategies for boosting Africa's competitiveness on the global stage.
