Hughton

Current Ghana boss Hughton, who won 53 caps for Ireland as a player, has vast experience as a manager, guiding Newcastle and Brighton into the Premier League either side of spells in charge at Birmingham and Norwich.

Goodwill Sports Ambassador, Mr Ray Quarcoo, has congratulated Chris Hughton on his appointment as the new head coach of the national football team, the Black Stars.

Here are five convincing reasons Chris Hughton’s appointment as the Ghana Black Stars coach is turning into a profound disappointment for the nation.

Kurt Okraku, who is the President of the Ghana Football Association, newly appointed Black Stars coach, Chris Hughton, Kwabena Yeboah, among former Black Stars players were all present to pay their last respects.

Since Akonnor’s departure, the Black Stars have experienced multiple coaching changes, with Milovan Rajevac and Otto Addo assuming the role before Chris Hughton took over as the current coach.

Even on Friday, manager Chris Hughton had said he was yet to decide whether Murray would play after his concussion at Newcastle last Saturday but the Englishman once again proved how crucial he is to his side.

Having also signed former Albion striker Leonardo Ulloa on loan from Leicester in January, Hughton has plenty of attacking options.

However, Hughton could become only the third manager to beat Arsene Wenger in a Premier League game with three different clubs, after Mark Hughes (4) and Sam Allardyce (3).

I’d like to think with our additions that we’ll improve this year,” Hughton said.

It's an incredible achievement for Chris Hughton and his players.

It was a very good cross in the first place and Glenn did what he does," Hughton added.
