Former Black Stars winger, Razak Pimpong, has praised former playing mate, Otto Addo for leading the Ghana national team to book a place in the 2022 World Cup.
Addo, who was appointed as the interim boss of the Black Stars in February led Ghana to secure a place in the Mundial, beating Nigeria on away goals to secure a spot.
Pimpong, who during his playing days, was part of Ghana’s 2006 World Cup squad, together with Otto Addo, said he was not surprised by his former teammate’s early performance as Black Stars Head Coach.
“I’m not surprised about where he has reached and what he did with the Black Stars,” Pimpong told Citi Sports in an interview.
“If you consider the work he’s done from his days with FC Nordsjaelland to Borrusia Dortmund and now the Black Stars, you can’t be surprised.
"He has put a lot of work to reach where he has in his career.
"When he was appointed interim Head Coach with George Boateng, Didi Dramani and Chris Hughton, I knew they were primed for success,” he added.
The Ghana Football Association has yet to clarify the future of Otto Addo and his three assistants, after their contracts run out on March 31.
Meanwhile, Ghana are in Group H alongside Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea.
The global showpiece kick off in November.
