Ghana Football Association reviews Carlos Queiroz's World Cup report, decides his future

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) Executive Council convened to examine head coach Carlos Queiroz's technical report following the Black Stars' performance at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Queiroz, appointed in April 2026, guided Ghana to a Round of 32 finish – the nation's best result since the 2010 quarter‑finals – after a 1‑0 win over Panama, a 0‑0 draw with England and a narrow 2‑1 loss to Croatia in the group stage, before a 1‑0 defeat to Colombia in the knockout round.

The council's meeting was expected to determine whether Queiroz will continue in charge as Ghana prepares for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, where the team faces Côte d’Ivoire, Gambia and Somalia. President John Dramani Mahama publicly backed Queiroz, saying continuity could help Ghana win future AFCON or World Cup titles. Speculation about a resignation sparked by a social‑media post was later dismissed by the coach, who clarified the message was simply gratitude to supporters.
