Retired footballer Joseph Tetteh-Zutah has joined the Technical Directorate as Manager of the GFA Elite football academies.
The former Medeama SC captain who previously worked as an administrator of the club comes in with loads of experience having also worked as Administrative Manager and acting Chief Executive Officer ( CEO) of the mauves and yellows and currently the Vice President of the Professional Footballers Association of Ghana (PFAG).
Tetteh-Zuta is expected to ensure the smooth running of the academies with the aim of ensuring that the best talents in the country are scouted, trained and developed.
The GFA Elite football academy project has taken off at Winkogo in the Upper East region with two others set to be commissioned in the Ashanti region and the Greater Accra region to serve the other football zones.
The concept which is open to boys and girls aims to partner with some selected Senior High Schools (SHSs) to establish academies across the country, where players scouted at the junior high school level will be screened and placed in SHSs in the three football zones.
Joseph Tetteh-Zutah, a product of the University of Cape Coast, played for Ghanaian champions Medeama SC and Young Africans of Tanzania before veering into full time football administration.
He led Medeama SC to win their first Premier League title last season. Other personal honours include the MTN FA Cup triumph in 2013/14, the Tanzania Premier League with Young Africans in 2015/16 as well as Super Cup titles with the two teams in 2015/16 and 2022/2023 respectively.

The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly posing as a soldier and extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public at Ashaiman.
The suspect, identified as Bright Atsu Kudiabor, was arrested by the Ashaiman Police on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, he was arrested at an area known as “I Shall Return”, where he was allegedly parading himself as a soldier and demanding money from people.
The Police said Kudiabor, who is an ex-convict, was initially arrested by personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service in Ashaiman with assistance from other members of the public.
A search conducted on him after he was handed over to the Police reportedly led to the recovery of a set of military camouflage uniform.
The suspect is currently in Police custody and assisting with investigations.
The Tema Regional Police Command said he would be processed for court after investigations are completed.
The Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who falsely presents themselves as a soldier or a member of another security agency to deceive or extort money from the public.

Volta Regional Minister, James Gunu, says the Volta Region holds enormous agricultural potential and efforts must be geared towards connecting farmers to the needed resources to unlock that potential.
He said focus must be on linking farmers to resources, technology, financing and markets to increase production, create jobs and build sustainable livelihoods.
Hon. Gunu made the remarks at the national launch of the Ghana Tomato Self-Sufficiency Initiative (GHATSI) held at Anloga in the Volta Region on Tuesday, September 15.
The initiative, under the theme “Produce at Home. Feed the Nation. Export the Surplus,” seeks to boost local tomato production, processing and marketing while reducing Ghana’s heavy reliance on imported tomatoes.
The launch was attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, his Deputy, John Setor Dumelo, Feed Ghana Coordinator, Bright Demordzi, Members of Parliament, traditional leaders, MMDCEs, farmers and other stakeholders.
Mr.Gunu expressed appreciation to the Minister for Food and Agriculture for the support announced for the region, including two excavators, 200 cartons of organic fertiliser, and GH¢200,000 for Ms. Kuatudzo Esther Dela, a tomato farmer and processor from Ziope.
He described the initiative as an important step towards making agriculture a stronger driver of food security, job creation and economic growth in the Volta Region.
