Former Brighton & Hove Albion manager Christopher William Gerard Hughton is currently in Ghana amid Black Stars coaching role links.
The 63-year-old former Norwich and Newcastle manager who was sacked by Brighton in May 2019, has eyeing for the Black Stars job following the exit of Serbian manager Milovan Rajevac who was fired by the Ghana Football Association after Ghana’s disastrous Afcon exit.
Oyerepa FM, Eugene Adu Poku- (Striker) reports that Hughton and his representatives have met some top officials of the ruling government in Alisa Hotel in Accra over a possibility of getting the Black Stars coaching job.
Houghton was born on 11 December 1958 in London to a Ghanaian postman, Willie Hughton, and his Irish wife Christine née Bourke.
Having an African background Chris qualified to play for the Republic of Ireland as the son of an Irish mother and a Ghanaian father, becoming the first mixed-race player to represent the country.
Chris Hughton who recently coached English Championship side Nottingham Forest, played 53 matches for the Irish National team.
