He will be assisted by Yaw Preko and Baba Nuhu Malam as assistant coaches.
The Black Meteors’ technical team also includes Montari Tagoe, a former Asante Kotoko and Medeama SC goalkeeper, who will serve as the Goalkeepers Coach.
Aduana Stars Welfare Officer Atta Yeboah takes up the role of Team Manager, while Henry Bart-Plange will serve as Team Masseur and Baba Aluta of Aduana Stars as the Equipment Officer.
