Legendary Ghanaian player, Augustine Arhinful has called on the head coach of the Black Stars, Otto Addo, to enhance his managerial skills as the team struggles to find form.

According to him, Otto bears part of the blame because some of his tactical approaches to the games do not help to get the best out of the players in crucial matches.

The former Borussia Dortmund player advised the Black Stars coach to focus on the tactical work during matches instead of staying glued to the computers on the bench to watch replays of incidents.

Speaking in an interview with Happy FM, Arhinful also criticised the criteria used for the selection of coaches, as most of them fail to thrive with the Black Stars team.

“You will see the coach looking at the computer on the bench, meanwhile the game is a tactical work on the field of play. The computer is there to aid you. So the technical men should sit up seriously.

“The coaches we have been appointing for Black Stars recently have not been doing well. Before Otto’s appointment, a statement was issued for the selection of the new coach, but it was not followed. I ask myself who forced them to issue that statement,” he said in Twi during the interview.

This comes after the Black Stars’ abysmal performance against Sudan in the 2025 African Cup of Nations qualifiers, losing 2-0 in the return leg in Libya.

After four matches played, Ghana is third in Group F with two points, Sudan is in second place with seven points, while Angola leads with twelve points.

The Black Stars will travel to face Angola and play the last match against Niger in Ghana in November 2024.
