After Ghana’s early exit from the 2022 World Cup, former Ghanaian international Kim Grant has proposed a five- to ten-year growth plan for the country’s football.
Following a 2-0 loss against Uruguay, the Black Stars fell out of the tournament after the first round.
After defeating South Korea in their second group game, the Black Stars needed a draw or win against Uruguay to advance to the last 16 stage.
But the team failed to negotiate for points against their ‘enemies’ Uruguay.
In an interview, the former Hearts of Oak coach asserted there should be a five-ten year plan for development both local and international.
“Black Stars need new technical direction, there should be a complete overhaul. There should a 5-10 years plan for development both local and international. Infrastructure, scouting, and sports science should be looked at, video analyst also need to be looked at and how far we will go with everything.
I think we can do a lot much better as you saw for Morocco, Senegal and Cameroon because there is a lot of development going on and for that matter there should a strategic plan for the Ghana football for ten years”
Meanwhile, the Black Stars have been ranked the 24th best team at the just ended 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar which was won by Lionel Messi inspired Argentina on Sunday.
The four-time African champions failed to progress past the group stage after recording two defeats and a win.
Otto Addo’s men lost 3-2 to Portugal, bounced back to beat South Korea 3-2 and lost 2-0 to Uruguay in an entertaining World Cup exit.
Despite failing to go past the group stage, the African giants placed 24 in the index rankings after the tournament saw Argentina beating France in a nerve-racking final to clinch their third World Cup title.
The Black Stars is currently without a coach following the exit of Otto Addo, who stepped down after early exit at the biggest soccer mundial in the Asian country.
