Ex-GFA boss Dr Nyaho Tamakloe crusades against Otto Addo's appointment as Black Stars coach

Hearts of Oak board member, Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe says he is against the appointment of Otto Addo as Black Stars head coach.

The former Ghana international, who was part of Milovan Rajevac's technical team has been linked to the job after the leadership of the Ghana Football Association [GFA] held talks with him in Germany.

However, Dr Nyaho-Tamakloe has warned the GFA against the appointment of German-born Otto Addo because of his lack of commitment to the Black Stars job when he was recently appointed as one of the assistant coaches.

He argued that as an assistant coach of the Black Stars, Addo failed to join the team to the AFCON when his services were needed most and instead chose to switch his allegiance to the German side for which reason he should not be considered.

“I will not go in for Otto Addo, he hardly showed up as an assistant coach because of his commitment to another club. If he had showed up and we saw his qualities, it would have been another matter,” he the former GFA chairman told Graphic Sports.

Dr Nyaho Tamakloe also admitted that it would be wrong to appoint Chris Hughton now because we needed to first consider appointing a coach for a short-term after which they should invite applications from prospective candidates.

Milovan Rajevac was sacked after Ghana's abysmal performance at the just ended 2021 Africa Cup of Nations [AFCON] in Cameroon. The Black Stars exited the tournament at the group phase with just a point.
