Following two unsatisfactory performances in the qualifiers for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and Carlos Queiroz have agreed to part ways.

The Portuguese coach's tenure with the Black Stars was remarkably brief, ending prematurely under pressure from poor results. Tasked with bringing discipline and international experience to the squad, the former coach of Portugal and Egypt failed to overcome two defeats in the opening matches of the 2027 AFCON qualifiers.

Unable to find the right tactical balance and reignite a winning momentum, Queiroz leaves behind a team plagued by doubt. While the battle for qualification remains open but challenging, the GFA is already working behind the scenes to find his replacement.

The governing body must quickly appoint a new coach capable of re-mobilizing the squad and turning the situation around to avoid a historic failure.
