Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Former Newcastle United and Brighton & Hove Albion manager Chris Hughton has discussed his role as the technical advisor for the Black Stars. Hughton, who is of Ghanaian descent and was a former Northern Ireland international, was named interim Black Stars’ technical advisor in March.<\/p>\n

He assisted coach Otto Addo and his assistants Didi Dramani and George Boateng in securing qualification for the 2022 World Cup, and the position was made permanent as a result.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne thing we\u2019re very clear on is that he (Otto Addo) is the head coach,” Hughton told the Sun.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is someone I was aware of as a player and he has a good pedigree.<\/p>\n

\u201cOtto is also a very good coach, he would not be employed by Borussia Dortmund if he was not. He is responsible for picking the team and the tactics. My role is to be a sounding board, to give whatever advice I can to support him and the rest of the coaching team as best I can.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause of my experience, I\u2019m confident that I can handle that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hughton\u2019s involvement has been well received in Ghana but he added: \u201cMost people see it as a good technical staff. As well as Otto, there is George Boateng, whom I know well and is working at Aston Villa.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve a well-established coach, Mas-Ud Didi Dramani, based in Ghana, and the goalkeeping coach, Richard Kingson, played for Ghana.<\/p>\n

\u201cFootball has changed. A lot of what we\u2019re doing is over Zoom or Wyscout with the head coach in Germany and me in England but we feel there\u2019s a really good dynamic there.\u201d The role also allows the grandfather to spend more time with his family, including those two proud parents.<\/p>\n
