Former Black Stars player and AFCON winner Mohammed Polo has backed Kassim Mingle and Abdul Karim Zito as potential coaches to lead Ghana’s senior national team.
The Black Stars are without a head coach following Carlos Queiroz’s departure on October 1, with the Ghana Football Association and Ministry of Sports and Recreation currently searching for his replacement.
Speaking to Citi Sports, Polo identified Mingle as his preferred option while also calling for Zito to be considered as part of the technical team.
“At our background, back yard there. That was Zito. Unfortunately, it’s not in the scene. I don’t hear what, I don’t know whether he’s relaxed or whatever. But football, there is an option now. Otherwise, I would have, you know, I would have, you know, say it’s somebody who can be given the chance to do something.

Mingle has worked with several Ghanaian clubs and national youth teams, while Zito has extensive experience at both club and international youth level.
Polo’s comments come as the GFA’s five-member search committee begins the process of identifying a successor to Queiroz.
