The Ghana Football Association has issued a statement of apology to Ghanaians following the dismal performance of the Black Stars at the ongoing African Cup Of Nations tournament.
The Black Stars failed to advance form the group stages in a group of Cape Verde, Egypt and Mozambique earning just two points out of a possible nine.
The GFA has therefore taken full responsibility and assured Ghanaians that steps will be taken to see the Black Stars get back to their best.
“The Ghana Football Association extends our sincerest apologies to the good people of Ghana and all stakeholders for the recent disappointing performance of the senior national team, the Black Stars at the Africa Cup of Nations Cote D’Ivoire 2023.We understand the disappointment and frustration that such results can bring to our passionate football-loving nation. Our team’s performance fell short of the high expectations we all share, and we take full responsibility for the disappointment.”
“Following a meeting of the Executive Council of the Association and Chairmen of the RFAs on Tuesday, January 30, 2024, the GFA wishes to assure all stakeholders that the requisite steps are being taken to address the issues at hand, and a thorough review of the team’s strategies, training, compensation, and overall structure is underway.We value the unwavering support of our stakeholders, and we commit to working tirelessly with you to ensure a stronger and more competitive team. Your loyalty and passion are the driving forces behind our efforts to rebuild and elevate the standard of Ghanaian football.We appreciate your understanding during this challenging time and remain dedicated to restoring the pride and success we all desire for the Ghana Black Stars. Together, we will emerge stronger and more resilient.Thank you for your continued support.” the GFA’s statement reads.
In the meantime, a committee has been set up to see to it that a new Coach is appointed to take over the reins of the Black Stars following the dismissal of Chris Hughton.
