Former Ghanaian international Anthony Baffoe has paid a glowing tribute to former Black Stars striker Herbert Addo who passed on earlier today.

Coach Addo passed on at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital after battling a shor illness.

Reports had earlier suggested that government and the Ghana Football Association (GFA) have rejected him during his ailment which he denied vehemently.

Baffoe wrote on twitter saying "Another Legendary Coach is gone!..R.I.P Herbert Addo ??@ASAMOAH_GYAN3 @AyewAndre @Jomens25 @Badu_Agyemang @MichaelEssien".
