Carlos Queiroz’s tenure as head coach of the Black Stars has endured a difficult start, with Ghana struggling to produce consistent results under the experienced Portuguese trainer.
Since taking charge of the national team, Queiroz has overseen seven matches, recording just one victory, two draws and four defeats — a run that has increased pressure on the former Portugal and Iran coach.
The Black Stars have managed only five goals while conceding 10 during that period, highlighting concerns over both their attacking output and defensive stability.
Ghana’s disappointing results have included defeats in competitive fixtures, with the team struggling to find the rhythm and consistency expected from a side with ambitions of returning to the top level of African football.
Despite his wealth of international experience, Queiroz has faced criticism over the team’s performances, particularly after Ghana’s slow start to the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign.
The Portuguese coach was brought in with the task of restoring confidence and building a competitive Black Stars side, but the early results have left questions over whether he can quickly turn Ghana’s fortunes around.
Queiroz, however, remains focused on developing the team and believes Ghana have the quality to compete, as he continues his search for the right balance ahead of upcoming qualifiers.
With crucial matches ahead, the Black Stars will be hoping for an improvement in results as Queiroz looks to justify the confidence placed in him by the Ghana Football Association.
