Thank You Ghana – Sacked Black Stars Coach Shows Gratitude To Prez Akufo-Addo, GFA And Fans

Former Ghana coach, Charles Kwablan Akonnor has expressed gratitude to President of the country Nana Akufo-Addo, the leadership of the GFA and fans following his sacking.

The former Black Stars captain was axed as coach of the senior national team, after an uninspiring start to the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

Under the leadership of Akonnor, Ghana won four games, lost five and drew two matches, prompting the FA to show him the exit door.
