Ghana coach, Otto Addo has defended the new players that have completed their nationality switch to play for the Black Stars.
Southampton defender Mohammed Salisu, Brighton wing-back Tariq Lamptey and Athletic Bilbao forward Inaki Williams among other players have completed their nationality switch to play for the West African side.
Having experienced dressing room unrest, Addo, 44, has offered support to the new players adding that they are aware of what is expected from them.
He also added that the new players are looking beyond playing at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar later this year.
“This is why they really have to think about what to do,” the Borussia Dortmund coach told the BBC World Football podcast. “Especially if you’re not born in this environment, it’s not always easy,” he said.
“But they know what they stand to get. And first of all, it’s a lot of joy and love.
“And surely also for them. It’s not only about the World Cup, but also about more World Cups to come. It’s about African Cup of Nations. It’s about winning, being successful. So, it’s not about just this one World Cup in Qatar,” he added.
