Ghana have sacked coach Chris Hughton after their group-stage exit from the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
The Black Stars finished with two points in Group B, drawing 2-2 with both Egypt and Mozambique following a 2-1 defeat by Cape Verde in their opener.
“Chris Hughton has been relieved of his duties with immediate effect,” a Ghana Football Association (GFA) statement said.
“The executive council has also taken a decision to dissolve the technical team of the Black Stars.
“The GFA will in the coming days provide a roadmap on the future direction of the Black Stars.”
Hughton had been appointed as Ghana head coach in February last year.
Former Newcastle United and Brighton boss Hughton began working as a technical adviser for the four-time continental champions in February 2022.
He replaced Otto Addo as boss after Addo stepped down following the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where Ghana finished bottom of Group H with one win from three matches.
Ghana also exited the 2021 Afcon finals in Cameroon at the group stage, and the West Africans suffered the same fate in Ivory Coast.
The West Africans had also endured a mixed start to 2026 World Cup qualifiers under Hughton, beating Madagascar with a stoppage-time goal before losing 1-0 in Comoros.
