Former Ghana international Laryea Kingston has been appointed the head coach of the Black Starlets.

Kingston, who previously worked under Karim Zito as Ghana's U-17 assistant coach, has now taken over the head coach role.

The former Hearts of Oak and Great Olympics winger has already been in charge of the team in their recent friendly games ahead of their upcoming WAFU B tournament.

Kingston will be assisted by former Hearts captain, Jacob Nettey, and Nana Agyemang.

Nettey led the Phobians to the famous CAF Champions League glory in 2000 during his playing days.

He featured for the Black Stars during the Africa Cup of Nations in 2000 (co-hosted by Ghana and Nigeria) and was a member of the Ghana squad at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, USA.

The former Black Stars defender won six Premier League titles and three FA Cup trophies during his stint with Accra Hearts of Oak.

Nana Agyemang is a CAF Licence A and UEFA Licence B holder who previously worked with Adenta United, Barbarossa Academy, the Lizzy Sports Complex Academy and ProGen Football Club.

The new technical team has been tasked to assemble a formidable squad for the next edition of the WAFU B U-17 Cup of Nations, Accra 2024 and the TotalEnergies U-17 Africa Cup of Nations.
