Overview
- The Ghana Football Association and Carlos Queiroz agreed to end his contract by mutual consent, the association confirmed on Thursday.
- Ghana lost 4-2 at home to Gambia after leading 2-0 and had earlier been beaten 2-0 by Ivory Coast, results that leave the Black Stars pointless and bottom of Group C.
- Queiroz said the parties ended the relationship because "the necessary conditions were not fully established" and cited recent performances as a factor in his departure.
- He leaves with one win, two draws and four defeats in seven matches and a goal differential of five scored and ten conceded, and the GFA has not announced a replacement ahead of November's qualifiers.
- Queiroz had guided Ghana to the 2026 World Cup knockout stage on a short April-to-July mandate, but his September reappointment failed to halt mounting public criticism over team selection, tactical use of players and recurring coaching turnover.
