Kwasi Appiah came and went, then CK Akonnor, then Milovan Rajevac, and Otto Addo\u2019s first and second spells, as well as Chris Hughton.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSpeaking with the FA president and Executive Committee, their plan was to have a long-term strategy. They believed Otto Addo was suited for this because of his potential to commit to a long-term project. At the time, he had taken us to the World Cup, but due to his commitments with Dortmund, he returned there after the tournament,\u201d Agyeman said.<\/p>\n<p>According to Agyeman, firing Addo now would hinder Ghana\u2019s chances of competing in the World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s been brought back to build something for the long term. If you consider the long-term vision, consistency is essential. Football is about results, yes, but right now, in just a few months, we have two critical games against Chad, home and away, to keep our World Cup hopes alive. I don\u2019t think this is the right time for a change,\u201d he argued.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has announced an Executive Council (ExCo) meeting scheduled for Wednesday, November 20, 2024, to deliberate on pressing matters, including the Black Stars\u2019 failed AFCON 2025 qualification campaign.<\/p>\n<p>FKA\/MA<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Head Coach of the Black Stars, Otto Addo A member of the management committee for the Black Stars, Akwesi Agyeman, has called on fans to exercise patience with head coach Otto Addo.
