This appointment is a significant step as the Black Meteors aim to revive their past glory in international football.
Currently the head coach of Nations FC, Mingle brings a wealth of experience to his new role.
He has previously managed top Ghanaian clubs including Great Olympics, Bechem United, and several second-tier teams, where he built a strong reputation for nurturing young talent.
His extensive coaching experience at various levels of the game makes him a perfect fit for the Black Meteors, a team looking to restore its position as a continental powerhouse.
Mingle’s appointment is especially crucial at a time when the Black Meteors are striving to revive the legacy of Ghana’s U-23 team.
Ghana, as the first African nation to win an Olympic football medal, achieved this milestone during the 1992 Barcelona Games, and the team is keen to live up to its prestigious past.
With Mingle at the helm, there is optimism that the Black Meteors can once again shine on the international stage and become a formidable force in continental and global football competitions.
In addition to his coaching career, Mingle has a rich playing background with top-tier clubs such as Dumas Boys of GTP, GIHOC Stars, and Sekondi Eleven Wise.
This blend of playing and coaching experience is expected to bring discipline, competitiveness, and a strong team ethos to the team, qualities that are essential for developing the next generation of Ghanaian football stars.
The GFA has expressed full confidence in Mingle’s ability to lead the Black Meteors, stating that his expertise and vast experience will be instrumental in building a team capable of achieving success on both the African and global stages.
With this new chapter ahead, Coach Kassim Mingle is determined to lead the Black Meteors to new heights and ensure that they continue to make their mark in international football.
