Black Princesses coach Yusif Basigi has called on the government to extend contract provisions to all national team coaches, not just the Black Stars coach.
In an interview, Coach Basigi highlighted the struggles faced by national team coaches due to the lack of government contracts.
He argued that the Ghana Football Association (GFA) is not adequately equipped to manage these contractual issues and urged the government to take charge.
“When it comes to contract matters, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) cannot handle them,” the Hasaacas Ladies coach told Onua FM.
“If they are to enter contracts with coaches, it will be a worry. It is the government that must pay attention to us because the national team belongs to the government and the GFA is a caretaker.
So, government should turn attention to us because we are suffering,” he added.
Basigi is set to lead the Black Princesses in the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Colombia, where Ghana will compete in Group E with Japan, New Zealand, and Austria.
The team is determined to progress beyond the group stage, a goal that has eluded them in their previous six appearances.
