John Paintsil has made a passionate plea to the Government of Ghana, urging them to provide crucial support for the development of football in the country.
Paintsil, who is a former professional footballer and played for notable clubs like Fulham, Leicester City, and West Ham United, emphasized that the Ghana Football Association (GFA) cannot shoulder the responsibility alone.
Paintsil highlighted the recent progress and achievements of other African nations, such as Senegal and Morocco, to emphasize the need for the Ghanaian government's involvement in football development.
During an interview with Asempa FM, Paintsil expressed his views on the matter:"Talking about football development at large, the Ghana Football Association can't do it alone," Paintsil emphasized on Thursday.
He added: "Take a look at how the governments of Morocco and Senegal have supported and contributed to football development in the two countries. I believe the Ghana government is willing to offer support, too."
