C.K Akonnor sacked as Black Stars coach

The Executive Council of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has terminated the appointment of Black Stars Coach Charles Akonnor and his two Assistants with immediate effect.
This follows the receipt of the technical report from Coach Akonnor and the report from the Black Stars Management Committee following Ghana’s Group G World Cup qualifying matches against Ethiopia and South Africa.
The Executive Council after considering the two reports decided to terminate its relationship with the Head Coach and the two assistants.
The Executive Council has formed a three-member committee made up of Vice President Mark Addo, Upper East Regional Football Association Chairman, Alhaji Salifu Zida and Dr. Randy Abbey to find a Head Coach and Assistant Coaches for the Black Stars within the next 72 hours.
The GFA wished C.K Akonnor and his assistants well in their future endeavours.
Ghana currently have three points after the two opening matches.
The Black Stars will take on Zimbabwe in the next round of games in October 2021.
