The Black Stars head coach search committee has submitted their report and recommendations to the Executive Council (ExCO) of the Ghana Football Association for further action.

The committee has been mandated by the GFA to find a replacement for Chris Hughton and his staff who were sacked after Ghana's abysmal performance at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, where the Black Stars crashed out at the group stage.

The President of the GFA, Kurt Okraku, personally received the report on Tuesday.

The Ghana FA on Wednesday morning said the Executive Council will review the recommendations from the search committee and decide on the next Black Stars coach.

Once the coaching decision is resolved, the GFA will engage the Ministry of Youth and Sports, as well as other key stakeholders for their support.

The GFA Executive Council tasked a five-member Committee headed by Vice President Mark Addo to find a replacement for Hughton on January 25.

The Committee was also mandated to target suitable and competent coaches for consideration even if they don’t apply for the post.

Databank CEO Kojo Addae Mensah, GFA Technical Director Professor Joseph Kwame Mintah, Ghana legend Opoku Nti and William Kartey, Chief Director of the Ministry of Youth and Sports, are the other four members of the committee.
