Black Stars and left-back for AJ Auxerre, Gideon Mensah has praised Otto Addo as one of the finest coaches he has experienced with the Black Stars.
Mensah worked with Addo when he was an assistant to Milovan Rajevac, during Addo’s one-year stint as head coach leading up to the 2022 World Cup, and now in his current role as the primary coach.
Mensah holds Addo’s tactical approach in high regard, reflecting positively on his time under the former Borussia Dortmund talent coach.
“For me, I think he’s one of the best that I’ve worked with in the national team in terms of tactics and how he wants the team to play.
Obviously, he has always played in the national team before, so he knows what Ghanaians expect and what the team also wants.
But I think coming back again shows that he has sat down to think about what was not right and what was good, what to do next, and what to improve on,” Mensah stated.
