Nyantakyi backs Appiah for smooth player transition

President of the Ghana Football Association Kwesi Nyantakyi has admitted old players in the current Black Stars’ set up must make way for young ones.
Kwesi Nyantekyi watched Ghana’s friendly against China last Wednesday and was particularly impressed with the performance of the four debutants who made Coach Kwesi Appiah’s seventeen man squad.
According to the FA capo, it will take a bold step from head coach Kwesi Appiah to have a smooth transition process in the senior national team.
“I agree entirely that we need younger boys to play but it will take the courage to combine these younger boys with the older ones and then how to manage the transition. Akwasi Appiah is doing very well with that.”
Kwesi Nyantakyi admits “the younger players are the future of the Black Stars.”
