The Ghana Football Association has appointed Nations FC gaffer Kassim Ocansey Mingle as the new Head Coach of the Black Galaxies, Ghana’s CHAN team.

He replaces Mas-Ud Didi Dramani, who has “been excused to concentrate on his new role” as the coach of Hearts of Oak.

Mingle will be supported by assistant coach Samuel Boadu of Berekum Chelsea.

Former Ghana U20 captain and current coach of Attram Di Visser, Godwin Attram, also joins the team as an assistant coach, while former Black Stars goalkeeper Stephen Ahorlu takes charge as Goalkeepers’ Coach.

Former Black Stars Team Manager Henry Martey will serve as Welfare Officer of the Black Galaxies, with Justice Kofi Mensah and Francis Ofori acting as Kit Managers.

The team’s medical and support staff include Gilbert Yankson as Physiotherapist, Abass Adjei-Grant as Video Analyst, Dr. Abena Tannor as Team Doctor, and Prince Charles Anokye as Team Masseur.

The country’s football governing body expects the “experienced technical and backroom team” to prepare a “competitive Black Galaxies squad” for the next CHAN tournament.
