Description

Mohammed Gargo (born 19 June 1975) is a Ghanaian former professional footballer who played as a defender.

Gargo was a member of the men's national team that won the bronze medal at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, and gold in the 1991 FIFA U-17 World Championship in Italy.

In 2013 Gargo claimed that he had refused an approach to play for Ghana at the 2006 FIFA Women's World Cup, the first time the nation had qualified, after being asked to pay a bribe.

Gargo started after his retirement the job as coach in February 2010 by New Edubiase United. He trained the club of the Poly Tank Division One League until summer 2010. On 6 August 2010, he was named as the new manager of Poly Tank Division One League rival Real Tamale United. He coached the club RTU until November 2012 and resigned after the relegation from the Ghana Premier League his contract.

Gargo was appointed manager of Ghana Premier League club BA United in March 2015, but was sacked after one match when he accused his players of betting against themselves. The following year a short spell in charge of Okwawu United ended when he fell out with his players again, this time accusing them of "sexually promiscuous acts" in the club house. In September 2018 Namibian Premier League club Tura Magic F.C. signed a contract with Gargo as their head coach.

Gargo was born in the Burma Camp in Accra, where his father was a Physical training instructor in the Ghana Army. The family hailed from Bawku, part of the of Busanga tribe of Mandé ethnicity.
