I shall return- Simon Addo

feverishly as goalkeeper’s coach.

birth to impart what he has acquired in terms of technical expertise and experience

to Ghana soccer.

talents, and so he has buried his head into coaching, and planning to return to give

back to society.

pursuing a coaching course in goalkeeping; coaching U-11 and U-20.

“I have completed the License “B” course and looking forward to doing the License “A”.”

Reacting to the public perception about goalkeeper Richard Kingson, revealed that

“Oleley” is not finished yet, and that his performance in the last World Cup is

ample testament that he has more to offer the country.

He however admonished that the Ghanaian football authorities should train more

younger keepers who will be readily available should ‘oleley’ bow out.

member of the historic Olympic side that won bronze in the 1992 Olympics in
