Majority leader in Parliament, Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu has voiced his concerns about the frequent changes in Black Stars coaches following the sacking of Chris Hughton.
The Ghana Football Association on Tuesday announced the sacking of the former Premier League manager and the entire technical team of the Black Stars following their calamitous performance at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast.
But Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu in an interview with Angel FM monitored by Footballghana.com expressed his displeasure about the continuous sacking of Black Stars coaches.
“Constant peeling off coaches is not going to help us. Some of the players were deficient. Between the Ayew brothers, I had hope in Jordan than Andre because he’s played his part. If we are to be truthful to ourselves, he no longer fits into the team, why don’t address the issue at hand? You force the player on the coach and you don’t want to blame the player, rather, you blame the coach”
“To me, Andre Ayew has been a fantastic player just like his father was but at the moment, he is spent force” he said.
The Black Stars suffered an early AFCON setback after failing to seal qualification to the knockout stage of the continental showpiece.
Ghana has now failed to make it to the knockout stage of the continental showpiece for the second time running having last suffered early elimination in AFCON 2021 held in Cameroon.
The West Africa powerhouse drew two games at the Nations Cup, finishing in third place in Group B, behind Cape Verde and Egypt.
