Ghanaian football coach and former international player Samira Suleman has achieved a landmark milestone in her coaching career by officially acquiring her UEFA License A Diploma certificate.
The credential marks one of the highest coaching qualifications in European football, positioning Suleman among an elite group of Ghanaian women to reach that level.
With this achievement, Suleman takes a bold stride forward in her ongoing journey, having moved into management after her football career.
Her football journey began on the local scene, where she played for Hasaacas Ladies. She wore the national colours with pride, representing Ghana at various international tournaments.
Now, her focus has shifted to the sidelines—where her tactical acumen, leadership, and passion for developing talent continue to shine.
“This is a proud moment for me, not just personally but professionally,” Suleman said. “I’m grateful for the support I’ve received from mentors, fellow coaches, and the football community. This is just the beginning—I’m committed to using this knowledge to give back and help shape the future of football in Ghana.”
She also shared a post on her social media pages, announcing her new achievement.
