Late former Black Stars coach Herbert Addo will be buried tomorrow, Saturday June 24, at his hometown, Akropong-Akuapem.

He died on Friday 24 March.

Herbert Addo was born on the 24th June, 1951. He coached for close to four decades starting from his first job with Armed Forces Team S.S. 74 in the erstwhile First Division League.

Mr Addo also coached over 20 clubs within the period and had been the coach of Ghana as well.

He coached the Black Meteors (U23) (1981-82) and Black Satellites (U20) (1983-84) before handling the Black Stars (1983-86/87) and capping it off by winning the SWAG Coach of the Year award (1987).

The experienced coach also had a short stint with the local Black Stars, leading them to the African Nations Championship (CHAN) in 2010.

Mr Addo won the Ghana Premier League on five occasions with four different clubs – and he remains the only coach to have achieved that feat in the history of the local game.

He won the league title with Asante Kotoko (1988), Goldfields S.C now Ashgold (1994/95 and 1995/96), Accra Hearts of Oak (2002), and Aduana Stars (2010).

The 65-year-old coached top clubs like Accra Great Olympics, Sekondi Hasaacas, Kumasi Cornerstone (where he won the WAFU Champions Cup in 1987), Goldfields (now Ashanti Gold), Asante Kotoko, Accra Hearts of Oak, GHAPOHA, Okwahu United, Samartex FC, Gamba All Blacks, Pure Joy, Wassaman, and Inter Allies.
