Ghana Premier League side Swedru All Blacks have confirmed the appointment of Kassim Mingle as their new head coach.

Kassim Mingle makes the move to Swedru, signing a short-term deal which runs until the end of the 2025/26 season.

His appointment comes following the newly promoted side's decision to mutually part ways with Ahmed Fathi. The club cited health-related reasons for the departure of Fathi and video analyst, Mohammed Adily.

The former Nations FC gaffer will look to steer All Blacks to Premier League safety following their promotion to the top flight prior to the start of the 2025/26 season.

According to the club, Mingle "brings on board a wealth of experience, strong leadership qualities, and a proven track record in Ghanaian football.

All Black also mentioned the coach's "discipline, player development skills, and winning mentality" as part of the reasons behind the decision to hire him.

All Blacks currently sit 11th on the Premier League table with 24 points from 20 games, while they are also in the round of 16 of the MTN FA Cup.

Mingle's first game will be a trip to Bibiani's Duns Prak to face GoldStars on matchday 21 of the league on Sunday, February 1.
