Henry Asante Twum, the Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association has confirmed four-month salary arrears of Black Stars coach, Otto Addo.
The former talent development coach of Dortmund replaced Chris Hughton in March 2024 following the teams’ dismal performance in AFCON 2023.
In interview, Asante Twum hinted about talks between the FA and the Sports Ministry to ensure payment of outstanding debt.
“It is true that we owe Otto Addo. The last time I checked with the Sports Ministry, there were salaries in arrears which is not new,” he told Asempa FM.
“We owe Otto Addo four months’ salary arrears. We have had a series of meetings with the Sports Ministry about the outstanding payment and Otto Addo himself is aware of how difficult it is to get the monies from government but we are still working on it,” Asante Twum added.
Meanwhile, Otto Addo’s future with the national team hangs in the balance after failing to secure AFCON 2025 qualification.
Ghana finished bottom in Group F, accumulating just three points after six matches.
