Former Ebusua Dwarfs coach, JE Sarpong has implored the Ghana Football Association [GFA] to consider appointing a world-class coach as the next Black Stars coach.
Black Stars are without a substantive coach following the resignation of Otto Addo after the country's early exit from the ongoing 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Ghana failed to qualify for the next round of the Mundial, exiting at the group phase with just three points and finished at the bottom of Group H.
According to the veteran trainer, the team need a coach who is world-class and will not be influenced.
“He should be a world-class coach who should do everything to avoid being influenced in selecting players who are in top shape and fit his strategy and game plan.
"He should also be a coach who knows his job and will avoid any external influence,“ he stressed.
Coach Sarpong also urged the GFA to recruit a highly qualified team of administrators to manage the Black Stars with the view of instilling a sense of competitiveness in them.
“The FA should adopt a triangular system of team-building, comprising the recruitment of highly qualified staff to administer the team, a talent hunt across the country to unearth talented footballers who will be groomed to feed the national team and the provision of first-class facilities which would be used by the players during training and competitive matches,” he suggested.
Former Newcastle United and Brighton manager, Chris Hughton, who served as the technical advisor under Otto Addo has been backed to take over the team.
