Former Ghana international Hans Sarpei has weighed in on the ongoing debate surrounding the future of Black Stars head coach Otto Addo, urging patience despite recent disappointment at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Speaking on the matter, Sarpei acknowledged the team’s underwhelming AFCON campaign but emphasized that Ghana’s World Cup qualification ambitions should take priority.
“AFCON was disappointing, yes, but World Cup qualification is what truly matters at this stage. He should be allowed to finish what he started,” Sarpei stated.
The former defender also drew comparisons with Ghana’s memorable 2010 World Cup squad, highlighting key differences between that era and the current team.
“The success in 2010 was built on chemistry, confidence, and experience. This is a completely different era with its own challenges,” he added.
Sarpei’s comments come amid growing calls for the dismissal of Otto Addo, as pressure mounts on the Ghana Football Association to make a decision on the coach’s future.
