Appiah happy with player interactions

Black Stars coach Kwesi Appiah has spoken of his delight with the level of interactions he had with Ghanaian players during a recent trip to abroad.

The new Ghana coach who is offering a fresh start to every available player, last week visited some on the country's players in Italy and France.

Appiah returned to the country over the weekend and says he was happy with the talks held with the players.

"I had good and frank discussions with the players and explained to them my ideas for the national team.

"It was not just about the Black Stars but I also had to check up on their recoveries and welfare," the Ghana coach said.

"I am happy with the co-operation and we hope we can move forward together."

Appiah will turn his focus on preparing the squad for June's World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Zambia.
