Joachim Löw Denies Ghana Talks About Coaching Role

The vacancy leaves Ghana short on time before the World Cup.

Overview

  • Joachim Löw told Sky on Friday that no one from Ghana had officially contacted him about becoming national team coach.
  • The talk of negotiations came from the Ghanaian portal Ghanasoccernet, which reported unconfirmed World Cup‑only terms and a salary of about €150,000 per month.
  • Ghana dismissed Otto Addo after a 2–1 loss to Germany, and defender Derrick Köhn said players learned of the firing later by WhatsApp message.
  • Public denials from Löw and Ghana’s technical director Winfried Schäfer were echoed by German outlets such as Bild and AFP, which also reported no contact.
  • Ghana is drawn with England, Croatia and Panama for the June 11–July 19 tournament, which increases pressure on the federation to appoint a coach soon.
