BREAKING: Winfried Schäfer Sacked as GFA Begins Major Black Stars Backroom Overhaul

End of Schäfer’s Role After Less Than Two Years

Schäfer, a highly experienced German coach, was appointed in late 2024 to support Otto Addo following Ghana’s failure to qualify for the 2025 AFCON.

However, his tenure has now come to an abrupt end, with reports confirming he was relieved of his duties as part of a broader shake-up within the Black Stars technical team.

His departure marks yet another significant change in Ghana’s football structure as the country prepares for the World Cup.

GFA Resetting Entire Technical Structure

Sources indicate that Schäfer’s exit is not an isolated decision. The GFA is reportedly planning a complete overhaul of the backroom staff, allowing the incoming head coach to assemble his own technical team.

This move is aimed at restoring cohesion, tactical clarity, and long-term direction for the Black Stars.

Several high-profile names—including Slaven Bilić, Carlos Queiroz, and Fernando Santos—have already been linked to the vacant head coach position.

Timing Raises Concerns Ahead of World Cup

The timing of these sweeping changes has raised concerns among fans and analysts, with Ghana just weeks away from the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Reports suggest the new coach will have roughly 60 days to prepare the team before Ghana begins its campaign.

The Black Stars are set to face Panama, England, and Croatia in the group stage, making preparation time critical.

From Interim Option to Exit

Interestingly, Schäfer had recently been tipped by some football figures, including Kudjoe Fianoo, as a potential interim coach to stabilize the team during the transition.

However, the GFA has opted for a complete reset instead, signaling a decisive shift in strategy.

Why This Story Matters

This latest development highlights the urgency and pressure surrounding Ghana’s World Cup preparations. With multiple changes at the top level, the GFA is gambling on a fresh start to revive the Black Stars’ fortunes.

The coming days will be crucial, as the association is expected to announce a new head coach who will shape Ghana’s World Cup journey.

New Names Enter a Growing Shortlist

According to multiple reports, former West Ham United manager Slaven Bilić and current Mali national team coach Tom Saintfiet are now under serious consideration for the Black Stars job.

Their inclusion adds to an already competitive shortlist that includes several experienced European and African tacticians, as the GFA intensifies efforts to find a quick solution.

Bilić Brings Top-Level European Experience

Bilić, a former Croatia national team coach, is widely respected for his tactical discipline and attacking style of play. During his time at West Ham United, he led the club to an impressive seventh-place finish in the English Premier League.

His extensive experience across Europe and Asia could offer Ghana a structured, high-level approach as the team prepares for the World Cup.

Saintfiet’s African Expertise a Strong Advantage

On the other hand, Tom Saintfiet brings deep knowledge of African football, having coached multiple national teams across the continent.

He gained widespread recognition after leading The Gambia to a historic quarterfinal finish at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations—an achievement that highlighted his ability to build competitive teams with limited resources.

Currently in charge of Mali, Saintfiet’s familiarity with African football dynamics could be a key asset for the Black Stars.

GFA Under Pressure Ahead of World Cup

The urgency surrounding the appointment cannot be overstated. With the 2026 FIFA World Cup fast approaching, Ghana remains without a head coach—raising concerns about preparation and tactical direction.

The Executive Council is expected to make a final decision in the coming days, with reports suggesting the GFA may opt for a short-term appointment focused solely on the World Cup campaign.

Why This Decision Matters

The next Black Stars coach will play a decisive role in shaping Ghana’s World Cup ambitions. After recent struggles and inconsistent performances, the team is in urgent need of stability, leadership, and tactical clarity.

Whether the GFA chooses European experience or African familiarity, the decision could define Ghana’s performance on football’s biggest stage.

By referencing Kwame Nkrumah, Stonebwoy aligns himself with a legacy of Pan-Africanism, unity, and global African identity. Nkrumah, Ghana’s first president, remains a powerful symbol of African pride and independence.

The musician’s statement suggests that today’s artists are not just entertainers—but modern-day carriers of Africa’s vision and voice.

Bill Gates to Testify Before U.S. Congress Over Epstein Links – What We Know So Far

Screenshot

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is scheduled to testify before the U.S. House Oversight Committee on June 10, 2026 as part of an ongoing investigation into disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Bill Gates to testify before U.S. Congress over Epstein links

The development comes amid renewed scrutiny of high-profile figures connected to Epstein following the release of documents linked to his network.

What the Hearing Is Actually About

According to multiple credible reports, the House Oversight Committee is investigating the U.S. government’s handling of the Epstein case, including how his network operated and who may have had relevant knowledge.

Gates has been called to testify specifically about his past relationship and meetings with Epstein, which he has previously described as a “huge mistake.”

No Evidence of Criminal Charges Against Gates

Despite viral claims circulating online, there is currently no credible evidence or official accusation that Bill Gates is being investigated for rape, trafficking, or torture.

In fact, reports confirm:

  • Gates has not been accused of wrongdoing in connection with Epstein’s crimes
  • No victims have publicly accused him of abuse
  • He has repeatedly denied any involvement in illegal activities

His testimony is expected to focus on what he knew about Epstein and the nature of their interactions—not on criminal charges.

Gates Admits Relationship Was a “Mistake”

Bill Gates has openly acknowledged meeting Epstein several times after his 2008 conviction, saying the association was a serious error in judgment.

He has stated that his interactions were related to philanthropic discussions, though he later admitted they were unproductive and regrettable.

Part of a Broader Epstein Probe

The hearing is part of a wider congressional investigation that has already involved several powerful figures, including politicians and business leaders.

The committee is examining:

  • How Epstein maintained influence
  • Whether authorities mishandled investigations
  • The broader network surrounding his activities

Other individuals, including former U.S. officials and billionaires, have also been asked to testify.

Why This Story Matters

The Epstein case continues to raise global concerns about accountability among powerful elites. While public interest is high, misinformation is spreading rapidly—making it critical to separate verified facts from viral speculation.

As of now, Bill Gates’ appearance before Congress is about answering questions regarding his past association—not facing criminal charges.

“If I die today, it’s my sister who killed me,” Sheldon said tearfully in the video, raising alarm among viewers across social media platforms.

Unclear Motive Behind Alleged Attack

Despite the seriousness of the accusation, the exact cause of the alleged confrontation remains unclear. Sheldon did not provide further details about what may have triggered the incident.

The lack of clarity has led to mixed reactions online, with some calling for immediate intervention, while others urge caution until more facts emerge.

Public Reaction and Calls for Investigation

‘Don’t Sacrifice Your Future for Family’ – Kwaku Manu Warns Amid Edwin Gyimah Controversy

Ghanaian actor and media personality Kwaku Manu has issued a strong caution to the public, urging individuals not to jeopardize their future in a bid to please family members.

Speaking in a TikTok video, Kwaku Manu described Gyimah’s situation as a painful but important lesson for many, especially those who overextend themselves financially and emotionally for relatives.

According to him, Gyimah is fortunate to still possess documents proving ownership of his house, suggesting that without such evidence, his family could have easily claimed the property as theirs.

“This is a serious lesson. Sometimes we sacrifice too much for family, and in the end, it turns against us,” he implied.

Questions Over Family Offer

Kwaku Manu also cast doubt on reports that Gyimah’s sister allegedly offered between GHC50,000 and GHC100,000 for the house.

He questioned the practicality of such an amount, asking where in Ghana that sum could realistically be used to build a comparable home.

His remarks highlight broader concerns about property disputes, family entitlement, and financial boundaries.

Gyimah’s Emotional Revelation

Gyimah’s situation gained national attention after his emotional interview on Oyerepa FM, where he detailed the hardships he has faced since his career downturn.

He alleged mistreatment from close relatives despite years of financial support and sacrifices made during his peak as a professional footballer.

His story has sparked widespread debate across Ghana News platforms and social media, with many sharing similar experiences of strained family relationships.

Why This Story Matters

This controversy reflects a deeper societal issue where successful individuals often feel obligated to carry extended family burdens. Experts warn that without clear boundaries, such expectations can lead to financial ruin and emotional distress.

Stories like Gyimah’s serve as a reminder that while family support is important, it must be balanced with long-term personal stability and security.

Serbian Doctor Who Helped Asamoah Gyan in 2012 Could Offer Kudus World Cup Lifeline with ‘Horse Placenta’ Treatment

Ghanaian star Mohammed Kudus faces a race against time to recover from injury ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, but a controversial alternative treatment once used by Asamoah Gyan is now emerging as a possible solution.

With surgery potentially ruling him out for months, attention has turned to a Serbian therapist known for using a unique “horse placenta” method — a treatment that famously helped Gyan make a rapid recovery in 2012.

👉🏽 Join 15,000+ readers online now. Join our WhatsApp Daily News Channel for breaking updates.

Kudus Facing World Cup Race Against Time

The Tottenham Hotspur midfielder has been sidelined since January after suffering a serious muscle injury, with reports suggesting surgery could keep him out for up to six months.

That timeline would almost certainly rule him out of the World Cup, dealing a massive blow to Ghana’s hopes.

Kudus, one of the Black Stars’ most important attacking players, now faces a crucial decision: undergo surgery or explore alternative recovery options that could accelerate his return.

For more updates, visit Ghana News and Ghana News Live.

The Return of the ‘Horse Placenta’ Treatment

One unconventional option gaining attention is a therapy associated with Serbian specialist Marijana Kovačević, known for treating elite athletes using a gel believed to contain natural compounds linked to horse placenta.

Kudus injury sparks debate as horse placenta treatment resurfaces

The method, while controversial, has built a reputation for dramatically speeding up muscle recovery.

According to reports, the treatment works through non-invasive techniques involving massage and electromagnetic stimulation to regenerate damaged tissue.

How It Helped Asamoah Gyan in 2012

Ghanaian fans will remember its most famous success story.

Back in 2012, Asamoah Gyan turned to the same Serbian therapist after suffering a hamstring injury that was expected to keep him out for weeks.

Incredibly, after just a few hours of treatment, Gyan was able to sprint and return to action — a recovery that stunned both fans and medical observers.

The striker himself admitted he was shocked by how quickly he recovered, describing the experience as almost unbelievable.

Why Top Athletes Still Consider It

Despite skepticism from parts of the medical community, the Serbian therapist has reportedly worked with several high-profile athletes, including tennis star Novak Djokovic and footballers across Europe.

Supporters of the method argue that it is safe, natural, and compliant with anti-doping regulations, while critics question the lack of scientific consensus behind its effectiveness.

What This Means for Ghana

Kudus’ decision in the coming weeks could define Ghana’s World Cup campaign.

Losing him would significantly weaken the Black Stars, especially during a period of transition for the national team.

However, if the alternative treatment works — as it did for Gyan — it could provide a dramatic turnaround and a major boost for Ghana’s chances on the global stage.

Why This Story Matters

This situation highlights the growing intersection between traditional sports medicine and unconventional therapies. With millions at stake and careers on the line, athletes are increasingly willing to explore bold recovery options — even those that challenge conventional science.

For Kudus, the stakes could not be higher: it’s a choice between a safe but lengthy recovery or a risky, unconventional path that could rewrite his World Cup story.

Artemis I Orion Capsule Splashes Down Safely After 694,000-Mile Moon Journey

The Artemis I mission has successfully concluded with the Orion spacecraft splashing down in the Pacific Ocean off San Diego after traveling an extraordinary 694,481 miles (1,117,659km) around the Moon and back.

Artemis I Orion Capsule Splashes Down Safely After 694,000-Mile Moon Journey 16

According to NASA’s live broadcast, the spacecraft landed precisely as planned, with all systems performing within expected parameters.

A Historic Step Toward Human Return to the Moon

The Artemis I mission, though uncrewed, is widely seen as one of NASA’s most critical test flights in decades. It validates the Orion spacecraft’s ability to safely carry astronauts beyond low-Earth orbit — a key requirement for future lunar and Mars missions.

This successful splashdown paves the way for Artemis II, which will carry astronauts around the Moon, including Christina Koch, who has drawn attention in Ghana after honoring the country’s flag during mission preparations.

Precision Landing and Safe Recovery

The Orion capsule re-entered Earth’s atmosphere at speeds exceeding 39,000 km/h before deploying parachutes and splashing down gently in the Pacific Ocean.

NASA officials confirmed that the spacecraft maintained stability throughout re-entry — one of the most dangerous phases of any space mission.

An announcer during the live coverage confirmed that the crew (in upcoming missions) are expected to be “in great condition” based on the spacecraft’s performance and environmental systems.

Why This Story Matters

The success of Artemis I is more than a technical achievement — it signals the beginning of a new era in space exploration. With global collaboration and renewed investment, missions like Artemis are expected to redefine humanity’s presence beyond Earth.

For countries like Ghana, the symbolic involvement through figures like Christina Koch highlights growing global representation and inspiration in science and space exploration.

What Comes Next?

With Artemis I successfully completed, attention now shifts to Artemis II — the first crewed mission of the program. NASA aims to send astronauts on a lunar flyby, bringing humans closer than ever to a permanent return to the Moon.

The long-term goal remains clear: establishing a sustainable human presence on the Moon and eventually preparing for missions to Mars.
