Ghana’s head coach, Otto Addo, has said that he told the Ghana Football Association (GFA) that he will only take the Black Stars job if he can keep his job at Borussia Dortmund.
In an interview with Transfer Market, the tactician said that he was given a permanent position with the Black Stars following the goalless draw against Nigeria in the World Cup qualifiers.
“Although we had not come out of a 0:0 in the first match against Nigeria, the team convinced with the way we acted, so that the president already told me afterwards: “No matter how the second leg ends – we want you to continue. If we qualify, then at least until the World Cup.”
“Through the 1:1 in the second leg, we managed the qualification and the association said that from his point of view I could also continue in the double function.
“We were also able to agree on this with the BVB in the following discussions. It was always clear to me: When I tackle the challenge, I don’t want to give up the job in Dortmund for it,” coach Otto Addo said.
Coach Otto Addo will continue with the Black Stars after reaching an agreement with all parties, and will be in the dugout for the 2023 AFCON qualifiers and the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
