GFA Denies Speculations of Negotiations with German Coach for Black Stars
The Ghana Football Association has debunked rumors of the GFA Boss Kurt Okraku engaging a German coach for a Black Stars role.
There were reports earlier in the week that the FA President’s trip to Germany was to find a new Black Stars coach and that remuneration for the role was discussed.
However, the GFA in a press statement says those 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 statement read. “The Association wishes to state clearly that the reports are entirely false.” The statement read.
According to the FA, the aim of the trip to Germany was to engage the kit sponsor for the Black Stars, PUMA.
“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 GFA has urged the public to disregard the rumors.
