George Afriyie has eulogized the Ghana Football Association following the appointment of Frimpong Manso as the head coach of the Ghana U17 team, the Black Starlets.
Manso recently replaced Laryea Kingston, who left the job during the qualifiers for the Africa U17 Cup of Nations last year.
However, Afriyie, who has been critical on the current FA appears to be pleased with the appointment of Manso as new Ghana U17 coach.
“For the first time, the FA has done something positive which needs applause. Frimpong Manso is a fantastic coach. I know I will get backlash from people for saying this. Sometimes the FA isn’t comfortable when I praise someone” he said in an audio aired on Kessben FM.
“But I can boldly tell you that his appointment is in the right direction. I have had the opportunity to interview Frimpong Manso before for the same position. Under Kwesi Nyantakyi, appointment wasn’t done anyhow, appointments to head any of the national teams was done in the right way”
“I’m saying this to clear the doubts of people. Frimpong Manso is one of the best when it comes to writing of match reports after a game. He is very good at what he does. That’s a clear indication that he understands his job. And with his appointment, I can say with all certainty that the FA has done a good job with his appointment”.
