Ghana has signed five dual nationals since qualifying to the 2022 World Cup. Inaki Williams, Tariq lamptey and Stephen Ambrosius as well as Mohammed Salisu and Rashford Yeboah have all committed to playing for their home country. Coach Otto Addo summoned them all during the FIFA international window.
The Ghana coach did not start Kamaldeen Sulemana against Brazil (3-0). Tariq Lamptey and Salisu Mohamed Inaki WilliamThey entered the second half. Their debut was marked by a severe setback against the Seleção. Blame it on Otto Addo, who couldn’t find a diagram. AND it is the interested party who admits it: “Because the system might have been wrong, I will start with me. I must watch it again and ask myself questions.»
Should the Ghanaian coach have resorted to a poor integration of his dual nationals? Addo must find the right formula to win the World Cup with these new arrivals.
“But the technician doesn’t put any pressure on himself.That’s the job of the coach. You always have to make difficult decisions, he reminds. This is how we want it. We want our players to be successful at clubs. We want them to score, but also to defend well, to play well, and to have assists. It is our measure. It is also our style of play, the opposition players, and what we need to do to win. The club’s performance is crucial in determining the outcome.»
This formula proved to be a disaster in its first attempt. The coach will have a chance to redeem himself against Nicaragua in September 27.
