World Cup: Ghana coach Otto Addo explains role given to Mohammed Kudus in Black Stars games

Head coach of the Ghana national team, Coach Otto Addo has disclosed that while Mohammed Kudus has a role to play defensively in Black Stars games, he is also prepared in a way that he is able to do his ‘magic’ in the offense.

According to the coach, he gives the young sensation the chance to do what he thinks is right for the team when moving forward.

‘’Surely it always depends on his position and we try to prepare him for his defensive task but also offensive task, against South Korea he started a little bit more defensive on the right side and he has the freedom to come in the midfield and do his game and offensive wise we try to give him the confidence to do what he thinks is right,” Coach Otto Addo told ghanafa.org.

The Black Stars coach added, ‘’Surely, he has an eye for his team mates but also if he has space and he can dribble then he should do it, it’s a big strength of him to go one on one, he has a great shot as well so we encourage him to do it. Surely there is always room for improvement but so far, we are very, very happy with his performance.”

Mohammed Kudus, 22, has been Ghana’s standout player at the ongoing 2022 FIFA World Cup.

He already has two goals and one assist after featuring in both Group H matches.

He will be key for Ghana in the final group match against Uruguay on Friday,
