John Paintsil , former Blackstars defender is in the view that the National Football team’s newly appointed coach Chris Hughton can win back-to-back Afcon titles if he’s paired with Kwesi Appiah as his assistant.
Hughton, who was named as the new trainer of the Black Stars will be assisted by George Boateng and Didi Dramani.
The 64-year-old replaces Otto Addo, who left his role following Ghana’s 2022 FIFA World Cup exit.
However, according to Paintsil, Hughton will benefit from Kwesi Appiah ‘s experience having been part of the team for years.
“What he needs to do is to have someone like Kwesi Appiah ,” he said speaking on Mining City Radio.
“When Chris Hughton get Kwasi Appiah in his team, they can even win the Nations Cup back-to-back because, him having that experience, and Kwesi Appiah also having that experience and also knowing the culture of the game, I think that will be all.”
