Former National Sports Authority (NSA) Director-General Kwadwo Baah-Agyemang has called on Ghana to adopt a long-term strategy for the Black Stars following the team’s elimination from the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Ghana’s campaign ended with a 1-0 defeat to Colombia in the Round of 32, with Jhon Arias scoring the only goal of the match to send the South Americans into the next stage.
Speaking on Asempa FM, Baah-Agyemang said the focus should shift from chasing immediate success to building a sustainable future for the national team.
“From what we all watched, we should not aim at immediate success. I believe we should have a long-term plan for the Black Stars, and that will help the team to succeed,” he said.
He stressed that although success remains the ultimate goal, it can only be achieved through proper planning and continuous development.
“Everyone wants to succeed, but you need to have a plan, and with the situation of the Black Stars at the moment, the team needs a long-term plan,” Baah-Agyemang added.
