Over 600 coaches reportedly apply for Black Stars head coach job

More than 600 applications from coaches worldwide have been received in response to the Ghana national team's quest for a new head coach.

The postio became vacant after Chris Hughton was fired by the Ghana Football Association (GFA) due to the team's poor performance at the 2023 AFCON—they were unable to win a single game during the group stage.

Several prominent managers, such as Felix Magath from Bayern Munich, Nikola Jurcevic from West Ham, and Maxwell Konadu from the Black Stars, are among the applications.

EXCL: Wow! Over 600 coaches have applied to take the vacant Ghana national team coaching position.

Coaches from Europe, South America, North America, Africa and Ghana are vying for the Black Stars job!
