The Ghana Football Association has officially appointed Carlos Queiroz as the new head coach of Ghana’s senior national team.
The announcement was made on Monday, 13 April 2026, with the 73-year-old Portuguese tactician taking over from Otto Addo, who was relieved of his duties weeks earlier.
Queiroz is expected to lead the Black Stars at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which kicks off on 11 June, as Ghana aims to make an impact on the global stage.
The GFA is placing strong faith in the vast experience of the former Real Madrid manager, who has handled several national teams across the world. Over the years, Queiroz has coached countries including South Africa national football team, Portugal national football team, Iran national football team, Egypt national football team, Oman national football team, Japan national football team and Qatar national football team.
Among his achievements, the Portuguese manager guided South Africa to qualification for the 2002 FIFA World Cup and led Portugal to the knockout stages of the 2010 edition.
With his wealth of international and tournament experience, Queiroz is now tasked with steering Ghana through the World Cup and restoring the team’s competitive edge on the global stage.
