Black Stars: GFA ready to fire assistant coaches Joseph Laumann and John Painstil?

Reports suggest that John Paintsil and Joseph Laumann, assistant coaches for the Black Stars, are on the verge of being dismissed by the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
Sources indicate that the GFA is in talks with a Belgian and a Serbian to replace them, though their identities remain undisclosed.

The technical team, led by Otto Addo, has faced intense criticism from Ghanaian football fans after failing to qualify the Black Stars for the upcoming AFCON in Morocco—marking the first time in 20 years that Ghana will miss the tournament.

This failure has cast a long shadow over the current coaching staff.

With crucial 2026 World Cup Qualifiers against Chad and Madagascar looming in March, calls for Otto Addo’s dismissal are growing louder.

While his future hangs in the balance, it remains uncertain whether Paintsil and Laumann will be sacked before the upcoming fixtures.
