A five-person committee, appointed by the Ghanaian Ministry of Sports and the Ghana Football Association, is poised to endorse an interim coach for the Black Stars ahead of crucial qualifiers against Somalia in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations. The committee, spearheaded by former GFA vice-president Fred Pappoe and comprising former Black Stars captain Stephen Appiah, Anthony Yeboah, Faisal Chibsah, and Agbesi Dzakpasu, was established last week in response to Carlos Queiroz's abrupt resignation following two consecutive losses to Ivory Coast and The Gambia.
The interim coach is set to assume leadership for Ghana's upcoming matches at the Accra Sports Stadium before the team selects a permanent head coach. The committee's mandate is anticipated to be extended post the interim coach recommendation to facilitate the ongoing search for a permanent replacement. Queiroz's departure has left Ghana bottom of Group C with no points from their opening two matches, prompting urgent calls to revitalize their campaign and re-enter the AFCON after missing the 2025 tournament in Morocco.
