Show me a player like Ronaldo or Messi in Ghana and I will include him in the squad-Kurt Okraku

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Mr Kurt Okraku says the squad that represented Ghana at the 2021 African Cup of Nations football tournament were the best they had so far.

Speaking on Skyy Power 93.5FM on Thursday, January 20, Mr Kurt indicated they are disappointed in their shambolic performance at the AFCON 2021, but attention is now focused on the World Cup and will improve in terms of performance and preparation.

Emphasizing the selection of players, he indicated the 28 players who went to Cameron were the best at their disposal and any good player who was not selected, was not available.

Talking of the rebuilding process of Ghana football, he indicated the building or fixing of the problems in Ghana football starts from the foundation which they have already begun with the process.

However, it will take time for the full effect to be realised but unfortunately, as they are in the building process, they will still have to compete at the highest level of football which is the AFCON and World Cup.

Also, since most Ghanaians are putting blame on the player selection, he is open to other options of players who are talented as Christiano Ronaldo or the Lionel Messi in Ghana to be included in the Ghana squad.

He said, “The players who represented Ghana are the best players we have, if there is a Ronaldo or Lionel Messi type of player somewhere who will move straight to our first eleven, just let me and I will include him.”
