Former Black Stars striker Prince Tagoe has identified what he deems to be one of the biggest challenges facing the current crop of Black Stars players.<\/p>\n Prince Tagoe believes that the current Black Stars are suffering from the absence of the \u2018luck\u2019 factor, which he considers a crucial ingredient in winning games.<\/p>\n The absence of luck, Prince Tagoe believes, is due to the failure of the current players to be charitable with their money.<\/p>\n According to him, one reason that endeared the likes of Michael Essien, Stephen Appiah, and Sulley Muntari to Ghanaians was that these players loved to give.<\/p>\n He said on Angel TV that the class of Black Stars players constantly supported the less privileged in Ghanaian society, which helped build them up spiritually.<\/p>\n Prince Tagoe stated that the current players are not known for such gestures, and that is working against them spiritually.<\/p>\n \u201cDuring our time, the likes of Michael Essien, Stephen Appiah, and others undertook a lot of charity projects. They were kind to people, so the fans loved them. Because they were generous, the team had good luck all the time, and things went well. In the current Black Stars team, only a few show love to the people.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are not saying give all your money to the people, but be charitable. Give something to the needy and make people feel a little bit of the money you have. When people tell you stories about the charity works of Essien, Appiah, Sulley, and Laryea, you will be shocked. People don\u2019t see these things, but it helped the team,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Prince Tagoe also condemned the decision to give the Black Stars captaincy to Mohammed Kudus ahead of Jordan Ayew.<\/p>\n Prince Tagoe stated that Jordan Ayew should have been given the role, as that would have ensured some peace and unity in the team.<\/p>\n \u201cYou can\u2019t give the captaincy to Kudus when Jordan is present in the team. You don\u2019t do that. Kudus is a very good player, but you need to be patient and allow his time to come before you give him the captaincy.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen you do it at the right time, you will feel the impact, and he will feel well. The confusion in the team takes its root from all those things, and it\u2019s the major problem we must tackle. We must look at the captaincy issue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n In the aftermath of the first leg of Ghana\u2019s doubleheader against Sudan in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers, Jordan Ayew was spotted expressing frustrations during a conversation with Sudan\u2019s Ghanaian coach, Kwasi Appiah, and it emerged that Jordan Ayew was venting his anger over the decision to bypass him for the captaincy role.<\/p>\n According to Dan Kwaku Yeboah of Peace FM, Jordan Ayew was not happy with the development and made it known to Kwasi Appiah.<\/p>\n \u201cOne of his (Jordan Ayew\u2019s) concerns was that they told him he would captain the team. But he was not informed that the captaincy was being handed to Kudus. Kwasi Appiah was asked to speak to him because he was angry,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Watch the latest edition of Weekend Sports Recap below:<\/p>\n![\"Former](\"https:\/\/cdn.ghanaweb.com\/imagelib\/pics\/523\/52318340.295.jpg\" "\\"Former")
