Hughton was in Kumasi in April when Kotoko played out a pulsating goalless draw with King Faisal in April and was also at the Nana Agyeman Badu Park I in Dormaa on Saturday, May 27, when Dreams FC recorded a narrow 1-0 over Aduana Stars.
Didi Dramani has also been spotted in Division One League matches between Vision FC and Golden Kicks and Uncle T against Heart of Lions.
It is unclear if he will invite some home-based players to his team ahead of the next international break, but his interest in the locals is expected to motivate the players.
In February 2023, Chris Hughton was appointed as head coach of the Ghana national team, having previously served as the technical advisor under Otto Addo while Didi Dramani was also retained as one of the two assistants.
Hughton had admitted during his unveiling that he would be staying in the country to keep an eye on the domestic top flight.
"I will be spending more time in Ghana. I will be watching more games. I am constantly being made aware of players who are doing well. I'll be paying more attention to [GPL] games because it is important that we have a strong national league," he said.
