Head of Public Relations of the Ghana Football Association Neil Armstrong Mortagbe says, Black Stars Head Coach Otto Addo has the backing of the GFA.
Otto Addo has come under pressure following poor form in the 2025 Afcon qualifier. With 2 points from 4 matches Ghana has a slim chance of making it to the African Cup next year.
Some section of football fans have called for the dismissal of the former Ghana international but Armstrong-Mortagbe says Otto Addo has the full support of the GFA.
The FA engaged Otto Addo on a long-term basis, and based on his early performances against Mali and the Central African Republic, we believe there’s potential for growth for the nearly three years he was engaged for,” he said in an interview with Metro TV.
“Unfortunately, our AFCON qualifying series hasn’t gone as we hoped, but he remains in charge with the backing of the FA and the Executive Council.
“We expect to see improvements in our upcoming World Cup qualifiers, indicating that what happened previously was an anomaly, not a trend,” he added.
Ghana will resume their qualifiers next week and will aim to qualify for the 2025 tournament in Morocco against all odds.
