AFCON 2027Q: My resignation won’t solve Ghana football issues – Queiroz
Queiroz was on the touchline as the Black Stars blew away a two-goal lead to lose 4-2 to Gambia at the Accra Sports Stadium in their second game of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
Carlos Queiroz, the head coach of Ghana's national football team, known as the Black Stars, has stated that his resignation would not resolve the current issues facing Ghanaian football. Following the team's loss to Gambia in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers, there have been calls for the Portuguese coach to step down.
Queiroz acknowledged that the option to resign is often suggested in such situations but expressed his disbelief that it would lead to any change in the state of Ghanaian football. At a post-match press conference, Queiroz emphasized that any decision regarding his future should rest with the board of the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
The loss to Gambia adds to the mounting pressure on both Queiroz and the Black Stars as they strive to return to continental football, having missed the previous AFCON edition. Their opening match against Cote d'Ivoire ended in a 2-0 defeat.
