Queiroz Re-Appointed Ghana Coach Two Months After Stepping Down
The GFA said the 73-year-old Portuguese coach will start a new mandate as Ghana prepares for two AFCON qualifiers against Ivory Coast.
On Wednesday, The Ghana Football Association reappointed Carlos Queiroz as head coach of the Black Stars for an indeterminate period, two months after he stepped down following the FIFA World Cup campaign.
The GFA stated the 73-year-old Portuguese coach will "embark on a new coaching mandate, commencing with the upcoming international window," citing his extensive international experience and knowledge of the Black Stars.
With three wins in 13 matches, Queiroz previously managed Iran in the last three World Cup editions and took Portugal to the Round of 16 at the 2010 World Cup.
Ghana is scheduled to play home and away group matches against Ivory Coast in qualifying for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations during the next international window, running from September 21 to October 6.
Further details on the new mandate and the Black Stars' upcoming programme will be announced in due course, the GFA stated, as the team prepares for qualifying challenges ahead.
