Black Stars assistant coach Roger De Sa has revealed that his contract with the Ghana national team was limited to the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which concluded in North America.
The South African tactician joined Ghana’s technical team following the appointment of head coach Carlos Queiroz, who took charge after Otto Addo was relieved of his duties ahead of the global tournament.
Despite being part of Ghana’s World Cup campaign, De Sa disclosed that his agreement with the Ghana Football Association (GFA) was only valid for the duration of the competition.
Speaking in an interview with KickOff, the former goalkeeper confirmed that his contract will expire at the end of July.
“I was only contracted until the end of July, so that’s it,” De Sa said.
“My contract was just for the World Cup, and it ends on the 31st of July,” he added.
De Sa played a role in Ghana’s campaign at the tournament, where the Black Stars began with a narrow 1-0 victory over Panama before recording a goalless draw against England.
Ghana ended the group stage with a 2-1 defeat to Croatia, finishing third in Group L, but advanced to the knockout phase as one of the best third-placed teams.
However, their journey came to an end in the Round of 32 after a 1-0 loss to Colombia.
With the World Cup campaign concluded, Ghana will now turn their attention to preparations for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
The Black Stars have been drawn in Group C alongside Côte d’Ivoire, Somalia and The Gambia, with qualification matches scheduled to begin in September.
