Thomas Tuchel lined up for surprise new job three months after Chelsea sacking

Thomas Tuchel has reportedly made Ghana 's six-man shortlist to become their new boss.

In a surprising development, the ex- Chelsea manager - who was ruthlessly sacked in September following a poor start to the Premier League season - has been tipped to take charge of the Black Stars. The Ghanaian FA are lining up replacements for Otto Addo, who stepped down after his side failed to reach the World Cup knockout rounds.

Despite recently throwing his hat in the ring to succeed Gareth Southgate if the England boss were to step aside in the new year, Tuchel is being eyed by the African giants. Reports from Ghana suggest that the 49-year-old tactician has been named on a shortlist which also includes former Newcastle United and Brighton & Hove Albion manager Chris Houghton.
