Former Ghana midfielder Sulley Muntari has urged the GFA to build around the young core in the current Black Stars set-up.
Ghana failed to advance to the knockout round of the 2022 World Cup with youngest team in the competition with an average age of 24 years and 7 months.
While it is likely to be the last World Cup outing for experienced players such Andre Ayew and Jordan Ayew, the meteoric rise of Mohammed Kudus, Kamaldeen Sulemana, Fatawu Issahaku among others gives the country hope for the future.
“I can’t wait to see these kids progress not now, in future. Like hold them together, I am one but, of course, I am going to talk to the management, coaches and probably the President, you don’t dismantle this team” the Ex-AC Milan Star said.
“Whatever happens here, you still hold these kids because they are very young. You don’t change most of them, just a little maybe one or two then you just polish them. Let’s say 8-9 players should be the base for the future of the national team. Eight players should be like the foundation of the Black Stars” he concluded.
