According to reports circulating within the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Otto Addo is poised to become the new head coach of the Black Stars this week.

The German-based coach has reportedly been offered a long-term contract to lead Ghana's national team, succeeding Chris Hughton, who initially served as a technical advisor before assuming the head coach role post-2022 FIFA World Cup.

Should his appointment be confirmed, Otto Addo's first challenge will be to guide the Black Stars through international friendlies against Uganda and Nigeria in Morocco later this month.

These matches will serve as crucial tests for the team, providing an opportunity to measure their strength against formidable opponents and assess their preparedness for future tournaments.

During his previous stint with the Black Stars, Otto Addo's track record was mixed, with the team registering 4 wins, 4 draws, and 4 losses in 12 matches.

Although they struggled to find the net in four games, they managed to score 14 goals while conceding 16. Notable victories include a convincing 3-0 win over Madagascar, contrasted by a 4-1 defeat against Japan.

Otto Addo's appointment heralds the beginning of a fresh era for the Black Stars, with fans eagerly anticipating how the team will perform under his guidance.

With his wealth of experience and tactical acumen, Addo is expected to inject a modern and innovative approach into the team's tactics and playing style.

The imminent confirmation of Otto Addo as the Black Stars' head coach marks a significant milestone in Ghanaian football.
