Ghanaian scout, Ebenezer Sefah, has urged Black Stars head coach Otto Addo to consider working closely with competent home-based scouts in Ghana as he prepares his team ahead of the upcoming World Cup in June.

Last week, the Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association revealed that coach Otto Addo has formally requested improvements to his technical team in readiness for the global showpiece.

Speaking on the matter, Sefah emphasized that Ghana is home to experienced and capable scouts who understand the local football landscape and can significantly contribute to player identification and team development.

“There are very competent scouts in Ghana who have deep knowledge of the game and the players,” Sefah told Luv FM.

"If the technical team is being strengthened, then local scouts should be considered because they are closer to the talent and understand the system better.”

The Black Stars will play friendlies against Austria and Germany in March before their campaign in Canada, Mexico and USA in June.
