Hearts of Lions owner, Dr. Randy Abbey has highlighted the importance of having the legendary James Kwasi Appiah on the Ghana Football Association’s Executive Council.
James Kwasi Appiah, a former Black Stars captain and coach was elected to be a member of the Ghana Football Association’s Executive Council as a representative from the Ghana Premier League.
However, concerns were raised about Kwasi Appiah’s commitment after he was appointed as the head coach of Sudan national team shortly after winning the election to be on the Executive Council.
“Kwasi Appiah is a legend as a player. He captained the Black Stars and he has done a lot for this country and even as a coach, he worked with me. The first-ever international trophy that I won as a chairman of a national team was with Kwasi Appiah.”
He added that Kwasi Appiah will bring a lot to the table with his experience as a former Black Stars captain and coach.
“The All African Games in Maputo in 2011 and so he brings a lot on board from a player’s perspective and from the technical angle perspective.”
“He is currently part of the Asante Kotoko administration so I think he brings a different prospect to the table,” he added.
