Head coach of the Black Galaxies, Didi Dramani has explained why he called up different group of players for screening at the Ghanaman Soccer Center of Excellence.
About 96 players from the Ghanaian top-flight and the Division One League were selected during the first phase of the screening program.
According to Coach Didi Dramani, they want to bring the national team B together and create a database for purposes of continuous monitoring of players.
The former Asante Kotoko coach revealed while speaking in an interview with Ghana’s leading website Ghanasportspage.com on Wednesday.
“The idea behind this is to reconstitute the national team B, which is the Black Galaxies that’s why I grouped the players so that they will begin to have a certain philosophy and then we create a certain style of play.
“It will give them the opportunity to have integration and adaptation at the level because the A team, which is the Black Stars assembles for just two days before they play a game so it is good to begin to give this boys the orientation and know how to handle themselves in those postures.
“We are about finishing the first phase of our screening and it has been impressively done. I have created a huge database. A database of domestic players especially the Premier League teams, from the Division One, Division Two, and the junior national teams that is the under 20’s, the U-23 and the Universities. This is the sod of work we are doing.
“I met the management committee chairman and the president and told them the idea behind it. They are all fully in support of it. Even though we don’t have any competition but it should be work in progress always.
“We will continuously monitor some of the players who are not part of the team. We will still follow and monitor them when the league starts.”
Following the first phase of the screening, Coach Didi Dramani has shortlisted 27 players (24 outfit and three goalkeepers from group 1 and group two.
The players invited are to report at the Ghanaman Soccer Center of Excellence – at 5pm on Sunday, July 30, 2023.
