Dreams FC coach Abdul Karim Zito says latest Black Stars call up has justified the perception that Ghanaian football is on a downward spiral.
Ghana coach Otto Addo on Wednesday released a list of 26 players for the 2026 World Cup qualifying games against Mali and Central Africa Republic, handing an invite to only one local player.
Asante Kotoko goalkeeper was the only home-based player to have made the cut for the two crucial games next month.
Speaking in an interview with Kessben FM monitored by Footballghana.com, Zito, who led Dreams FC to a remarkable CAF Confederation Cup semifinals said handing call up to only one local player justifies the perception that domestic football is on a decline.
“Dreams FC deserves better. If it is about performance, then Dreams FC deserves at least a slot in the Black Stars team”
“Forget about Kurt Okraku, we are all Ghanaians and working for the country. The current technical has justified the perception that Ghana football is declining. Upon all the monitoring and you hand call up to only one player, who is a goalkeeper then I am disappointed” he said.
Meanwhile, the Black Stars opened camp on Thursday for the games against Mali and Central Africa Republic.
The team is expected to hold their first training session at the University of Ghana Stadium in Legon on Friday evening.
