Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, has delivered a blunt assessment of Black Stars coach Otto Addo, stating that he is not impressed with the coach’s work despite the team’s ongoing World Cup qualifying campaign.
Speaking with CitiFM, Adams made it clear that acknowledging satisfaction with Addo’s performance would mean he is failing at his job.
“If I tell you I am impressed with Otto Addo, then it means I do not know my job. I am not,” he stressed.
Otto Addo has faced increasing scrutiny over his tactical approach, particularly his preference for a more defensive setup in matches.
Critics argue that despite Ghana’s impressive position in the qualifiers, the team has not been dominant enough in games, often sitting back instead of utilizing its attacking firepower.
The Black Stars currently top Group I of the African qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and remain in pole position to book a ticket to the tournament in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
