Ghana make Emerse Fae top target after ending Carlos Queiroz tenure

Ghana have ended their partnership with Carlos Queiroz following a run of performances considered disappointing, with the Ghana Football Association already searching for a successor.

Emerse Fae has emerged as the leading candidate to take charge of the Black Stars as the federation seeks to revive the national team’s fortunes quickly.

Fae, the former head coach of Cote d’Ivoire, led the Elephants to a heroic triumph at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations. Ghanaian officials believe his experience and winning mentality could help restore the culture of success and resilience they feel is currently missing from the national side.

Interest from Accra is strong, but negotiations will be crucial if Ghana are to persuade the Ivorian coach to take on the new continental challenge.
