Former Black Stars player, Anthony Baffoe has quashed off rumors insisting he is not a lobbyist.

According to the CAF and FIFA instructor, many people were calling on him to lobby for a position in Kwesi Appiah's second return to the Black Stars as head coach.

The former Asante Kotoko captain named his backroom staff which comprises of Ibrahim Tanko, Maxwell Konadu, Stephen Appiah and Richard Kingston for the next two years.

Despite his exclusion from the Black Stars backroom staff, the astute football instructor insists he is a happy man and he is not a lobbyist.

"I am not worried for not holding any position in the national team." He told GTV Sports+.

"I am the chairman of the Professional Footballers Association of Ghana and I am pleased with my position.

"I am not a lobbyist and I will never be because I am a member of CAF and FIFA as well. I know with my experience in football people will love to see me there but I know Kwesi Appiah amd his backroom staff will surely deliver because he[Kwesi Appiah] is now a matured person." He added.
