The Wonder Club coach believes he has the requisite knowledge and experience to lead the Black Stars ahead of the 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers
Great Olympics coach Annor Walker has insisted that he can perfectly lead the Black Stars if given the opportunity as Ghana Football Association are in search of a new coach.
The Black Stars are without a coach after Serbian coach Milovan Rajevac was shown the exit following Ghana’s worse ever performance at the Africa Cup of Nations held in Cameroon.
Ghana failed to win a single game and surprisingly lost to debutants Comoros and Morocco as well as sharing the spoils with Gabon.
However, Walker, who doubles as Ghana’s Black Stars B coach, says he has garnered enough experience to help the team as they prepare to face Nigeria in the 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers.
“Why not? If I’m given the chance, I don’t think it is bad. It is left with me to do a good job,” Walker told AshesGyamera.com in an interview.
“Are the foreign players the only ones that can play for the national team? We have local players who are equally good. You saw Kotoko players just like Olympics players, Medeama have players so we have players who can also play the national team.
“So it is left us and the FA to decide who should play the national team. That is right [as more local players should be given the opportunity to represent Ghana]. I think it will also help so to me that is how I see it,” he added.
