GFA urged to bolster Black Stars' backroom staff ahead of 2026 World Cup


Sports News of Monday, 26 January 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comFormer Black Stars team psychologist Dr Patrick Ofori has called on the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to further strengthen the national team’s technical setup as preparations intensify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in North America. Ofori argues that while recent additions to the Black Stars’ technical bench have been positive, modern football demands an even broader support structure. The Black Stars secured qualification for the 2026 tournament co-hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico after a challenging campaign that followed their absence from the recent Africa Cup of Nations. Ghana’s ambitions for a stronger World Cup showing are high, with past tournaments in 2014 and 2022 ending at the group stage. Ofori believes that enhancing the technical team’s expertise is key to changing that narrative.
