Newly appointed Ghana head coach Carlos Queiroz is expected to arrive in the country this week with five members of his backroom staff as preparations intensify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The arrival of the vastly experienced Portuguese tactician signals the start of a new era for the Black Stars, with hopes high that his international pedigree can inspire Ghana to a strong campaign on football’s biggest stage. Having managed national teams including Portugal, Iran, Colombia and Egypt, Queiroz brings a wealth of experience to the role.
Sources suggest some members of the current technical team could make way as the new coach assembles his preferred coaching structure and begins work with his trusted staff. The changes are expected to form part of a broader strategy aimed at strengthening the national team ahead of the qualifiers and the World Cup itself.
Following his official unveiling, the Ghana Football Association will formally introduce Queiroz to Kofi Adams as part of official protocol, underlining the importance of the appointment to Ghanaian football.
Meanwhile, the new coach is also scheduled to meet the Ghanaian media on Thursday, where he is expected to outline his vision, objectives and immediate plans for the Black Stars. The press engagement is likely to attract significant attention from supporters and stakeholders eager to hear how he intends to shape the team for the challenges ahead.
With anticipation building across the country, Queiroz’s arrival is being viewed as a major step in Ghana’s World Cup preparations, as the Black Stars seek to reassert themselves among the leading nations in African football.
