It\u2019s not just about the result, but what we put in and I can say that it was a good exercise.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are taking nothing for granted against Burkina Faso as we intend to maintain a clean record in the campaign, our concern is whether we can rely on the team we are building as every now and then, a player pencilled for a role leaves for outside Ghana,\u201d Konadu told the Graphic Sports.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cThe situation of player movement is compelling us to build our team with uncertainty because you never know who will next join the bandwagon.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are, however, trying to talk them out of it and assuring them that they could land better deals if they made it to the CHAN. We hope that is convincing enough to make them stay till the end of the qualifiers, at least.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In the last three months, key players of the Black Stars B such as Richard Arthur, Abdul Bashir, Razak Abalora and Majeed Ashimeru have all left for greener pastures.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related_articles\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"clear: both; font-size: 90%; background-color: #eeeaea; padding: 5px; width: 60%; margin-top: 10px;\">\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/96124592.jpg\" style=\"padding-right:2px;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0;width:100%; vertical-align:middle; font-size:11px;\">Courtesy of <b>GHANAsoccernet.com<\/b> &#8211; Ghana&#8217;s leading football news website.
