Former Black Stars coach James Kwasi Appiah has been nominated for the 2024 CAF Coach of the Year award after stellar performance with the Sudan national team.
Appiah has been recognized by the continental football governing for his remarkable performance with Sudan.
He will have to beat off competition from AFCON 2023 winning coach, Emerse Fae and other coaches to win the prize. The CAF Awards will be held in Morocco in mid-December this year.
Appiah has managed 12 games as head coach of Sudan, securing 7 wins, drawing 4, and losing just one across the period.
Sudan has been outstanding under the Ghanaian tactician since taking over the job in 2023.
The Falcons of Jediane are just a point away from qualifying for the 2025 AFCON, which will be held in Morocco. They will take on Angola and Niger in their final group F game next month.
The Northeast African country is also at the top of their 2026 World Cup qualifying Group B, with ten points, two ahead of Senegal after four games.
