Former Black Stars coach James Kwesi Appiah says the country should focus on developing players before they can end their AFCON trophy drought.
Ghana last won the AFCON title in 1982 and over the last decade have come close to wining the trophy in two occasions that is 2010 in Angola and 2015 in Equatorial Guinea.
According to Kwesi Appiah, the Black Stars can win the AFCON if the Ghana Football Association maps up a strategy to groom players and have a long term plan to develop the game before they can end the AFCON title drought.
“We can’t just say we are going to win AFCON, we need to have a long term plan for our national teams and groom quality players before we can win the AFCON,” he told AtinkaFm
“For now we lack quality players to win the AFCON.”
Kwesi Appiah supervised Ghana in two AFCON tournaments in South Africa 2013 and Egypt 2019.
Ghana got eliminated in the Round of 16 through the penalty shootout by Tunisia in the 2019 tournament held in Egypt.

Master just be quiet we have wasted our money on u for nothing. Appiah Ghana has the quality only that we had a coach who doesn't know what he was doing.
BS talk!!! Why did he accept to be coach with the task of winning the African Cup? Was it because of the salary attached to the job? A coach who did not believe in strategy? OMG What a waste of resources!!! this guy is a waste more the reason he was a failure. Gerout there!!!!
It's pathetic to hear or read what the former coach is saying about the Black Stars winning AFCON. What was he doing as a coach ? It is the duty of coaches to only build a winning team, but to develop programs aimed a nurturing quality players into the team.So , what exactly were you doing all these years as a coach? Waste of the taxpayers monies on you!!! You have just justified why you were replaced.Please say no more and apologize to the nation for your lack of foresight and inefficiencies.
