The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has confirmed Otto Addo’s return to lead the Black Stars.
The former Ghanaian international replaces Chris Hughton, who was fired after the team’s unsuccessful Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) campaign in Ivory Coast earlier this year.
Otto Addo’s appointment follows the search committee’s five-member recommendation for Black Stars Head Coach.
GFA affirmed that they have extended an offer to Addo for a 34-month contract with a two-year option to extend.
Otto Addo can take up the role permanently in May of this year if Borussia Dortmund agrees to release him during the March international window.
Borussia Dortmund, a team in the Bundesliga, announced that Otto Addo will be leaving his position as a talent coach in the summer.
He will return to Germany following the forthcoming international break, which they have also confirmed his release for.
