Laryea Kingston has left his role as head coach of Ghana’s Under 17 national team, the Black Starlets.

He made this revelation in his post-match interview which saw him answer numerous questions from media men after his side’s defeat to the young stallions from Burkina Faso.

This defeat which leaves a bad taste in the mouth of Ghanaians highlights a third successive missing out of the U-17 AFCON competition.

Kingston has always kept to his word of resigning from the role right from when the team made the trip to Russia and back to the WAFU Zone B tournament where the Starlets failed to qualify.

”I know Ghanaians know me as a player and are familiar with the sacrifices I made for the country during my playing days.

”I gave my all as a player, but in the end, I wasn’t happy.

”I put more focus on my coaching career and educated myself to make sure I came back to change the narrative around Ghana Football.

”Within these past seven months as Head Coach, I’ve given my all. I decided when we came back from Russia that I would resign after the WAFU competition. The explanation will come later,” he said.

Kingston superintended seventeen games, which saw his side win twelve, draw three, and lose only two, scoring a whopping 54 times and conceding 15 goals within that interval.

Saharafootball.net understands that Kingson favors a move back to Denmark to continue his coaching development.
