Ghana FA’s statement on the Black Stars’ performance following their group stage exit.

The Ghana Football Association sincerely apologizes to the 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 in Côte d’Ivoire 2023.

We get the disappointment and frustration these results can cause for our football-loving nation. Our team didn’t live up to the high expectations we all had, and we fully own that.

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.

Thank you for your patience during this tough time. We’re committed to bringing back the pride and success we all want for the Ghana Black Stars, and together, we’ll come out stronger and more resilient.
