Former Ghana U20 coach Sellas Tetteh receives donation from Black Stars captain Andre Ayew

Published on: 17 February 2023

Black Stars Captain Andre Ayew has made a donation to 2009 U-20 World Cup-winning coach Sellas Tetteh.

The donation was made on his behalf by his mum Mrs. Maha Ayew and spokesperson Fiifi Tackie.

Tetteh, who has been unwell for some time, disclosed to Sports Obama TV in an interview last month that he has been chasing the GFA and Ministry of Sports for bonuses owed him since 2009.

At the 2009 African Youth Championship, Tetteh served as Ghana's head coach. He helped the Ghana under-20 team win the competition for the first time since 1999, qualifying them for the World Cup.

The Ghana under-20 squad was led to the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup by Tetteh, making them the first African side to triumph in the tournament. Tetteh thus received the Sports Writers Association of Ghana Coach of the Year Award and the CAF Coach of the Year Award.

Sellas Tetteh is hoping that after 13 years, he could be appreciated by the country for bringing glory and honour to his country.
