Former Asante Kotoko board member, Alhaji Abu Lamine believes the poor fundamentals of football in the country are affecting the progress of the Black Stars.
The woes of the team Black Stars were compounded after suffering a third-time group phase elimination at the 2023 AFCON tournament in Ivory Coast after Cameroon in 2021 and the 2022 world Cup in Qatar.
In an interview with Accra-Based Asempa FM, Mr Alhaji Lamine blamed the poor fundamentals as the reason behind the struggles of the senior national team.
“We went to Cameroon and we failed to perform. The same thing happened in Qatar. We were hoping to do better in Ivory Coast but we failed again,” he said.
“There is something fundamentally wrong with our game and it is about we fix it.”
He also called on government to invest to fix the fundamentals of the game if we want to see a better version of our football.
“We will need government to step in to help our game,” He said.
“In the time past, we had government coming on board to coaches and our game in general but it is not happening again.
“I believe we have to go back and fix the game by involving government. The fundamentals must be fixed to help revive our game,” he added.
