The Ghana Football Association will discuss the possibility of sacking Black Stars coach Chris Hughton at its Executive Council meeting on Friday, November 10, 2023.
According to Asaase Sports, the GFA leadership have already sounded out a significant number of Executive Council members in order secure their vote, when, not it, it gets to it.
However, a number of the Executive Council members are said to be opposed to the idea of sacking the Black Stars coach just a week before the start of the World Cup Qualifiers.
Chris Hughton was expected to name the Black Stars squad for the World Cup Qualifiers against Madagascar and Comoros, but the announcement has been delayed.
Although Hughton’s contract will expire at the end of the Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, the GFA is prepared to terminate it.
The GFA’s leadership have not hidden their dislike for the Black Stars coach since his appointment.
In July, two members of the GFA’s Executive Council; Dr. Randy Abbey and George Amoako, stated their displeasure with Chris Hughton’s performance.
”We are not too happy, we think there has to be a lot of improvement which needs to be made. We also don’t have all the time in the world, so we need to be fast about it,” Abbey told Takoradi-based Spice FM.
A day before Randy Abbey’s assessment, George Amoako gave his, only, he was not as charitable in his assessment of Hughton.
