Newly appointed Black Stars coach Carlos Queiroz has admitted managing the senior national team is his “biggest challenge after working with eight national teams” but he is “ready to deliver”.
The 73-year-old tactician has been hired on a four-month deal as a replacement for Otto Addo, until the end of the FIFA World Cup.
The experienced coach, who has less than 50 days until the global showpiece, is tasked with stabilising the team after four successive defeats under his predecessor Otto Addo.
"It is an honour and a privilege to be here today,” Queiroz said at the unveiling.
"Since I arrived, I have started to feel it. This is the soul of the Black Stars. The soul of the Black Stars is huge, and that means our dreams and expectations are huge.
“After eight national teams and important competitions, this is the biggest challenge of my life, and I am ready for that.
“I can promise and guarantee that I will bring 40 years of my experience [to the job]."
