Former Ghana international Reverend Osei Kofi has urged the handlers of the national team, the Black Stars, to build the squad around Mohammed Kudus.
Kudus, who plays for West Ham United, has emerged as a standout player for Ghana due to his exceptional performances in recent years. Osei Kofi praised Kudus, comparing his ability to change games single-handedly to that of legendary players like Messi.
“Whenever Polo had the ball, the four [talking about the fearsome five] would move, and he decided who to give the ball to,” Osei Kofi told Joy Sports. “Such players are rare. After me, there was Polo who came. But now, we have someone like [Mohammed] Kudus. Players like that are generational talents.”
Osei Kofi emphasized the importance of recognizing and utilizing such unique talents. “If the technical team were good enough, they would know this. You always have to build the team around an individual,” he said.
Kudus has indeed become the face of the Black Stars over the past year.
