Ghana’s Black Stars coach, Chris Hughton has been mandated to qualify for next year’s Africa Cup of Nations(AFCON) in Ivory Coast according Ghana Football Association Communications Director, Henry Asante Twum.

But according to the spokesperson of the GFA, despite the set target the gaffer first mission is to qualify the team to the 2024 AFCON.

“Chris must qualify for the AFCON in Ivory Coast and develop and improve the various national teams. Chris also has some sense of supervision over the other national teams. That is why he’s often seen at local match centers,” he told Max 89.7FM

Meanwhile Chris Hughton has recorded a win and a draw in his first two games against Angola in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
