Former Morocco head coach Walid Regragui is the top choice to become the next manager of Ghana’s national team after Otto Addo’s departure.

The Black Stars currently lack a permanent head coach following Otto Addo’s exit due to a series of underwhelming results during the March international break. The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has started the search for a new coach as the team aims to prepare for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Reports indicate that the GFA has begun talks with Regragui regarding the position. This move shows the federation’s commitment to hiring an experienced coach.
