1978 Africa Cup of Nations winner Mohammed Polo has advocated for the sacking of Black Stars coach Chris Hughton.
The Irish-Ghanaian trainer has come under intense pressure following the Black Stars unimpressive performance during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Ghana secured a hard-fought 1-0 win over Madagascar at the Baba Yara Stadium in the opening World Cup qualification game before succumbing to a narrow defeat to Comoros at the Moroni Stadium.
Speaking to Koforidua-based Bryt FM, the former football star expressed displeasure about the performance of the national team and has therefore called for the sacking of the former Premier League manager.
His insists Hughton has overstayed his welcome and for that matter, calling for his dismissal.
“I think Chris Hughton has overstayed his welcome. To be frank, he does not fit the job. He is destroying our football; he is even making things worse for us. We must show him the exit door and appoint someone who can make things better for us. As a legend of the game, I realized the Chris Hughton’s led technical team are not good and don’t even know what they are doing” he said.
Ghana will now shift their attention to the upcoming 2023 Africa Cup of Nations tournament to be staged in Ivory Coast between January and February 2024.
