Former GHALCA chairman Alhaji Ali Raji has spewed out a hard truth about Ghana Football regarding home-based players. He made his point clear during an interview when he was asked about integrating home-based players into the Black Stars.
Mr.Raji said that the quality of the various National teams with the exception of the Black Stars is of low quality. He explained that from the U17 to CHAN teams are all made up of low quality players.
He went on to say that the local coaches too haven’t shown any potential to change the narrative.
He reiterated his feelings during an interview on Accra based Asempa FM. He said,
“I am being honest with you. The quality is very low. From the U-17, U-20, U-23 and CHAN teams, the quality is very low. The coaches have not shown any potential to change very low-quality players into very good players;They did not exhibit it.
These present Hearts of Oak players will not get the chance to play in Aurora. Present Kumasi Asante Kotoko players cannot be part of Aokye Stars.”
As the Senior National Team missed out on AFCON the U17 up to the CHAN team, all failed to qualify for a major tournament.
