Meet Joseph Laumann – The German who is Otto Addo’s main assistant in Black Stars role
The formal announcement of Otto Addo as Black Stars manager was announced late last week by his current employers, Borussia Dortmund and then the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
Barely 24 hours after the March 15 announcement, Otto Addo’s main backroom staff was also announced.
Two of his three main assistants are no strangers to Ghana football or the Black Stars set-up – they are ex-internationals John Paintsil and Fatau Dauda.
The other assistant is in the person of Moroccan-German Joseph Laumann.
Below are some key details about the new Black Stars assistant coach
His full name is Joseph-Michael Laumann, a Moroccan by birth but a citizen of Germany.
