Ex-Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah clears air on Ghana captaincy rotation

Published on: 13 June 2020

Former Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has explained his comments about rotating the captain's armband in the national team. 

Appiah was misquoted as saying that the arm band should be rotated on match days to avoid the captaincy squabbles in camp.

However, the 61-year old insists the policy can be implemented for the future to limit the challenges that comes with leading the team.

“I was a not saying Ghana should adopt the captaincy rotational policy now since it will make no sense because Andre Ayew has just been handed over the arm band,” he told ATL FM.

”I was suggesting that if there are captaincy challenges in the team in future then we can try the rotational policy, may be it could work for us.

He further said “I was not advising the current head coach as purported in the media to change the captain but I was suggesting an option should we find ourselves in the same soup in future as country.”
