Ghana dismisses coach Hughton following AFCON disappointment

Date:

Chris Hughton has been dismissed as the coach of Ghana following the early exit of the Black Stars from the Africa Cup of Nations.

Hughton’s team failed to secure a victory in any of their three group-stage matches in Cote D’Ivoire, earning only two points and concluding third in Group B.

On Tuesday, the Ghana Football Federation announced the termination of Hughton’s role as head coach, a decision made by the executive council.

The statement also revealed the dissolution of the technical team of the Black Stars, with the Ghana Football Association promising to outline a roadmap for the future direction of the national team in the coming days.

Despite a disappointing draw against Mozambique on Monday, Ghana still had a potential pathway to qualify for the last 16 as one of the best third-placed teams.
