Former Ghana international Charles Taylor has cast doubts on Black Stars' chances ahead of the 2026 World Cup this summer.
The four-time African champions will make their first appearance at the Mundial, which will be co-hosted by the USA, Canada and Mexico.
Despite beefing up the technical team with Alain Ravera and Kim Lars Bjorkegren as assistant coaches, Jose Daniel Martinez Alfonso as scout and video analyst, Carlos Lozano Romero as team physiotherapist, and Dwayne Peasah Paa Kwesi as performance coach, Taylor says he is convinced about the chances of the team.
“Who is our coach going to the World Cup? I believe we need an experienced coach," he told Sporty FM.
“Some of our players are not even in good shape at the moment. I am not sure of our chances because people are saying we will beat Panama, which I find strange.
“We are not doing well at the moment, and it is my concern. We have spent money to bring new people to join the technical team. Why didn't we spend that money on hiring an experienced coach?" he added.
Drawn in Group L, Ghana will kick off their World Cup campaign against Panama on June 17, 2026, before taking on England on June 23 and concluding the group stage against Croatia on June 27.
Meanwhile, Otto Addo and his charges will regroup in March for the international games against Austria and Germany as part of their preparations for the tournament.
