Former Managing Director of Hearts of Oak, Neil Armstrong-Mortagbe, says Black Stars has not seen any progression under Chris Hughton.
The former Premier League replaced Otto Addo on a 21-month deal in March earlier this year.
However, The 64-year-old trainer has come under pressure with several football fans calling his exit after Black Stars lost 1-0 against Comoros in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers despite recording a 1-0 win against Madagascar in their Group I opener at the Baba Yara Stadium.
However, Mr Mortagbe speaking to Graphic Sports highlighted a lack of identity, philosophy, application, endeavour and energy within the team after nine months under Hughton's guidance, emphasising that the team's recent poor performance reflected these deficiencies, and expressed doubt about Hughton's ability to reverse the trend ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in January 2024.
“It becomes difficult to see where Mr Hughton is taking the team, and this is not limited to the last two games," he said.
"It has been the case virtually throughout the nine games that he has handled the Black Stars.
"I struggle to see an identity, I struggle to see a philosophy, I struggle to see us using our players in roles where I think the players could apply themselves better,” he added.
Hughton came close of losing his work after Ghana lost to Mexico and the USA in the international friendly games in October.
He is. however, expected to lead the Black Stars for the AFCON where they have been paired with Egypt, Cape Verde and Mozambique.
Chris Hughton, 64, will be hoping to steer the Black Stars to end the country's 41 years AFCON trophy drought by winning the ultimate.
