Here is his statement following the GFA’s announcement.
“Dear Ghanaian football fans,
“It is with immense pride and honour that I confirm my continuation as Head Coach of the Black Stars of Ghana.
“Serving Ghana is far more than coaching a football team. It is a privilege, a responsibility and a mission to honour one of Africa’s greatest football nations and its incredible and passionate football people.
“I am proud of what our players, staff and Federation achieved together under challenging circumstances at the 2026 World Cup final competition. Their courage, discipline and commitment restored belief, competitiveness and the Pride of a Nation.
“Now, a new chapter begins.
“The Africa Cup of Nations is much more than our next destination — it is the golden gateway to building the Black Stars that will shine and proudly compete at the 2030 FIFA World Cup.
“Our ambition is clear: improve every day, unite the nation, make Ghana stronger and fight for every victory with passion, humility and pride.
“One Team. One Nation. 35 Million Hearts. One Heartbeat.
“The Mission Continues.”
