Former Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Kwesi Nyantakyi is optimistic the country will see success again in the sport despite the recent struggles.
Ghana football has been on a rapid decline in the last few years with the senior national team, the Black Stars suffering back-to-back group stage exits at the Africa Cup of Nations.
The recent happenings in the country's football saw protesters petition the current administration of the GFA led by Kurt Okraku as well as Parliament in what was termed the "Save Ghana Football" demonstration.
However, Nyantakyi, who says he has no interest in working at the GFA anymore, believes things can get better.
"Ghana football will be great again," said Nyantakyi speaking on Onua TV.
"Wherever I am heading, I will contribute my knowledge and wisdom to help the GFA to restore things as they were before.
"I am a former president so I am an insider at the GFA. I was the president for 13 years and before that, I was an Executive Council member so I know things very well.

"Also on the African continent and the world stage, I know a lot of people and know a lot of ways to get results.
"So wherever I find myself and see the opportunity to help with the knowledge I have to get our football to develop or sports as a whole, I will."
Nyantakyi served as the President of the Association between 2005 and 2018 before he was banned from football-related issues due to Anas Aremeyaw Anas' Number 12 expose.
