Former Black Stars Management Committee member Kudjoe Fianoo has suggested that the Ghana national team\u2019s technical director, Winfried Sch\u00e4fer, be allowed to take charge of the side on an interim basis ahead of the World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) dismissed Otto Addo following a run of poor results, with a 2-1 defeat by Germany in an international friendly in Stuttgart proving the final blow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking to Kessben Sports, Fianoo said handing the team to Sch\u00e4fer on an interim basis while a permanent coach is identified would be a sensible approach, given the time constraints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe technical director at the GFA understands the Ghanaian terrain, so I\u2019ll suggest we give him the national team to handle on an interim basis while we take our time to look for a new coach,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMy fear is that we don\u2019t have enough time on our side. So my advice is that we have a technical director who, some few years ago, was interested in the Black Stars coaching job, but we ended up giving Otto the job and gave the current technical director the directorship role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI think we should give him the job and take our time to do due diligence and find a coach who will take us through the short, medium and long term, because we\u2019re becoming a country that appoints a new coach every year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The GFA is expected to announce a new Black Stars head coach in the coming days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
