Minister-designate for Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, has revealed that concerns over the future of Black Stars head coach Otto Addo extend beyond fans, with some members of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and even players expressing uncertainty.

Otto Addo has faced intense scrutiny following Ghana’s failure to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). Despite the backlash, the GFA’s Executive Council voted to retain him, leading to a restructuring of his technical team ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

Speaking on Sporty FM, Adams admitted that doubts about Addo’s leadership persist within the football community, including from individuals directly involved in the national team setup.

"The future of Otto Addo is a matter of concern to me. This concern of stay or not stay is not just coming from the non-playing body—that is what is of great concern to me," he stated.

"Not just the fans, but the engagements I have had go beyond that to even the playing body and some members of GFA (current and former)."

Adams, who faced vetting before Parliament’s Appointments Committee on Thursday, 30th January, is set to assume his role as Minister for Sports and Recreation in the coming days should he be approved by Parliament.
