Ibrahim Sannie Daara, the former Spokesperson of the Ghana Football Association, believes Otto Addo has what it takes to lead the Black Stars ahead of the crucial World Cup qualifier against Nigeria.
However, the ace journalist is worried by the FA’s delay in naming a new coach while Nigeria are ‘focused’ and will be releasing their squad for the game in the coming days.
“We’re just about 4 weeks to playing against Nigeria. Anything other than being focused on that match against Nigeria is us shooting ourselves in the foot. And I say these things for two reasons, while journalists have been sent on a wild goose chase, the Nigerians are focused,” he told Joy FM.
“They will name their squad for the game against Ghana in the coming days, we don’t have anybody in charge. So the wisest thing the GFA can do is to look for somebody that knows the squad, that knows the players, has worked with the players, knows the psyche of Ghanaian players and can move to stabilize the team in the midst of this outing in the AFCON that does not impress all of us, so that we can go with a strong face to face Nigeria,” he said.
“Anything other than that will further damage the team and will give us no chance in playing against Nigeria. And for that matter for me, Otto Addo ticks all the boxes,” he said.
