Ghana's Football Association has officially reappointed Portuguese coach Carlos Queiroz as head coach of the Black Stars, following his resignation after the 2026 World Cup. The 73-year-old will lead the team under a new mandate. Queiroz guided Ghana to the 2026 World Cup, where the team exited in the round of 32 after a defeat to Colombia. His contract expired upon elimination, prompting his resignation, but talks with the association and the Ministry of Sport led to a new agreement. Queiroz will begin his new role during the upcoming international break, starting Ghana's qualifying campaign for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations. The Black Stars travel to Ivory Coast on 23 September in a tough group.
