Karim Zito's CV shows he's qualified to coach the Black Stars - Mohammed Polo

Published on: 26 April 2024

Former Ghana international, Mohammed Polo, has endorsed Karim Zito as a viable candidate for the head coach position of the Black Stars.

Polo emphasized Zito's accomplishments with Dreams FC in the CAF Confederation Cup as evidence of his coaching prowess.

Under Zito's leadership, the Dawu-based team has progressed to the semifinals of the continental tournament and stands poised to advance further with a victory over Zamalek on Sunday.

"Our football is suffering. As for coaching, everyone is a coach; anyone at all can be a coach, but not all coaches can advance a team," said Polo in an interview with Joy Sports.

"Today, Karim Zito can hit his chest that he's been able to advance Dreams FC to the semi-final of the CAF Confederation Cup because others could not do that.

"Through that, his CV shows that he can be advanced to the highest level which is the Black Stars level so he can be progressed, but there are coaches who haven't done anything and they are given the job to do."

Despite Polo's endorsement of Zito, the Ghana Football Association recently appointed Otto Addo as the head coach of the Black Stars for a second stint.
