Black Stars Head Coach CK Akonnor
The head coach of Ghana’s senior team, the Black Stars, Charles Kwabla Akonnor, says his main goal is to qualify Ghana for the 2022 Qatar FIFA World Cup after the country was lost in 2018.
The former Asante Kotoko player was named in January this year and has started what looks like a rebuilding of the team after a disappointing 2019 AFCON round of 16 outing in Egypt.
Akonnor explains that it seeks not only to qualify, but to have a significant impact on the competition.
“My goal is to help Ghana qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup,” he told Kumasi-based Kessben FM.
“I want to qualify for the World Cup but that’s not all, I want my team to do well and for the country to be proud.”
The 46-year-old added that one of his immediate priorities is to help end the country’s AFCON trophy drought since 1982.
“My goal is to end the long Black Star trophy drought and win the AFCON,” he added.
“Winning the AFCON will not be easy at all. Therefore, I urge all Ghanaians to join in and offer their endless support to the Black Stars in our quest to win the coveted AFCON trophy again. “
Ghana leads Group C of the Cameroon 2022 AFCON Playoffs with nine points, on the same level as South Africa, with the next set of games coming in March 2021.
