Prague Raptors F.C coach Kim Grant has called for the sacking of Black Stars coach Otto Addo.
He made the comments after Ghana failed to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON 2025) in Morocco.
In a Facebook post, the former Black Stars player said Otto Addo's ''Tactical decisions highlight a glaring lack of experience, with an inability to implement a coherent playing system that suits the players' strengths. Instead, we see square pegs forced into round holes, wasting talent, and failing to maximize potential on the pitch.''
Ghana failed to qualify for the tournament, a first in twenty years, after finishing bottom of Group F with three points.
Less fancied Angola and war-torn Sudan, secured qualification spots ahead of the four-time African champions.
Grant, who currently coaches at the non-league Czech side, also alleged that Addo is being protected by powerful figures in the Ghana Football Association.
''Coaches in the past were dismissed for far less, yet this current technical staff is being shielded by an inner circle, even after this disastrous AFCON qualification campaign. The narrative to retain them for the World Cup qualifiers is outrageous and risks further embarrassment. It’s time to stop protecting mediocrity, banish egos, and demand accountability.''
Grant's comments coincide with the Executive Council's meeting on Wednesday, to deliberate on Ghana's dismal qualifying campaign.
Although no official decision has been communicated, it is understood that Otto Addo will not be fired.
