The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has officially opened negotiations with former Germany head coach Joachim Low over the vacant Black Stars job, according to GHANAsoccernet.com.
This follows the recent departure of Otto Addo, with the GFA moving swiftly to secure a high-profile replacement ahead of preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Sources close to the discussions reveal that initial talks between both parties have been positive, with Low expressing genuine interest in the role.
The German tactician is currently evaluating the project, including Ghana’s squad profile, technical structure, and long-term vision.
Low, who guided Germany to victory at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, is regarded as one of the most experienced coaches available on the market.
His track record in managing elite talent and implementing a clear football philosophy makes him a strong candidate to lead Ghana through this transitional phase.
The GFA’s decision to approach Low underscores its ambition to reset the Black Stars following a difficult run of results. Ghana has struggled in recent international matches, prompting concerns over the team’s readiness for upcoming competitions.
Ghana are determined to make a strong impression at the 2026 World Cup, where they have been drawn in a challenging group alongside England, Croatia and Panama.
Negotiations are expected to focus on key areas such as contract terms, backroom staff composition, and immediate performance targets.
With limited time before the next international window, the Association is keen to finalize an appointment as soon as possible.
Should a deal be reached, Low would face the immediate task of rebuilding confidence within the squad and establishing a defined playing identity while ensuring the team is competitive on the global stage.
His ability to adapt to African football and connect with local dynamics will be crucial to his potential success.
The GFA is expected to provide further updates as talks progress, with the football public eagerly awaiting confirmation of the next Black Stars head coach.
