Ghana's football chiefs admit the Black Stars are in trouble and say fixing them will demand patience, effort and a lot of time.
Ghana's football leadership has conceded what supporters have long felt: the Black Stars are struggling, and the road back to winning ways will be a long one. GFA Communications Director Henry Asante Twum says the association knows exactly where the senior national team stands and is working to steer it back on course.
Asante Twum pushed back on any hope of a quick fix. In his words, the turnaround will not come in a day or even a week, and will need far more effort and time than that. Rebuilding a team of this stature, he stressed, calls for patience and real commitment from everyone involved.
He also addressed the heat that comes with poor results. Football fans, he noted, react to what they see on the pitch: celebrate a team when it wins, and don't expect applause when it doesn't. That, he said, is something those in leadership must understand and accept.
The remarks arrive as pressure builds on the GFA to deal with the Black Stars' slump and restore the pride of one of Africa's most storied football nations. With fans demanding answers and results, the challenge now is turning the promise of patience into visible progress.
