Kurt Okraku has not met with any German coach over potential Black Stars appointment – GFA clarifies

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has issued a press release to address reports suggesting that President Kurt Okraku has engaged a German tactician over a possible Black Stars appointment.

In the release issued on Tuesday, November 5, the Ghana FA said the reports are false.

“The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has taken note of false reports being circulated that the Association has met a German coach and is negotiating remuneration with him.

“The Association wishes to state clearly that the reports are entirely false,” parts of the GFA release said.

It added, “The GFA President did not meet with any coach during his recent trip to Germany. The purpose of his visit was to engage with representatives of Puma, the long-standing official kit sponsor of the Black Stars, to discuss matters of mutual interest and strengthen our partnership; a story to this effect has been published on the GFA website and other media platforms.”

The release further urged the media and the general public to disregard these unfounded rumours and refrain from spreading them.

“For accurate information and official updates, please refer to the GFA's website and verified social media platforms, or contact the GFA,” the GFA said.
