Liberty Professionals president Alhaji Sly Tetteh has asked Kenya to emulate Ghana\u2019s youth development policy.
\nThe renowned talent-spotter was speaking at a ceremony to the National Youth Talent Academy that won under-17 Cecafa tournament in Rwanda last December.
\nHe blamed leaders for negative results recorded by Harambee Stars in international matches saying they lack proper planning.
\n\u201dAfrican leaders focus on senior teams without knowing the future of football is in the youth,\u201d said Tetteh.
\n\u201cGhana is a success story because there are working structures from the under-12, 14, 16, 18, 20 and 23 and Kenya should copy us to move forward.
\n\u201cWhen I come here and see under-12s play I believe there\u2019s talent in Kenya but it isn\u2019t easy to nurture the players. Kenya must start from grass root to grow,\u201d reckoned Teteh.
\nGhana became the first African country to win the prestigious Fifa Under-20 World Cup in 2009.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
